1.3kg box of Quebec Snow Crab.

Snow crab is incredibly tasty. Similar to lobster, but even more delicate and tasty in my opinion. It takes about 1 1/2 crab per person with a light side.

INGREDIENTS FOR BUTTER

1/2 cup semi-salted butter, soft

2 tbsp. finely chopped fresh thyme

2 tbsp. finely chopped fresh parsley + a little for serving

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

2 tbsp. tablespoon white wine

Salt and pepper from the mill

INGREDIENTS FOR CRAB

4 large garlic cloves, crushed

2 cups of white wine

3 stalks of celery, cut into large pieces

1 yellow onion, cut into large pieces

1/4 cup of salt

2 tbsp. 1 tbsp peppercorns

4 large snow crabs, trimmed

Lemon wedges

PREPARATION

In a large bowl, add the ingredients for the butter, then season with salt and pepper. Pour onto plastic wrap and roll tightly to form a log. Reserve in the fridge for 1 hour. Melt half when it's time to eat.

In a very large saucepan, bring about 10 liters of water to a boil. Add the garlic cloves, white wine, celery, onion, salt and pepper then mix. Cover, bring to a boil and reduce the heat. Simmer for 15 minutes.

Add the crab legs, mix and cook for 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the legs from the broth and drain. Serve with lemon wedges, garnish with fresh parsley and drizzle with garlic butter!
