     Title: Boiled Crabs
Categories: Cajun, Main dish, Fish
  Servings:  4

      2    Lemons, quartered                   8    New red potatoes
      4    Small ears fresh corn               4    Small yellow onions
      1 c  Salt                              1/2 c  Ground red pepper
    1/2 c  Ground white pepper               1/2 c  Ground black pepper
     12    Live blue crabs

  Fill a large (10-quart) stockpot one-third full with water. Add the lemons,
  potatoes, corn, onions, salt, and peppers. Cover and bring to a boil over
  high heat.  Let boil for 10 minutes. Add the crabs, (if blue crabs are not
  available, substitute other small to medium crabs), cover, and return to
  boil.  Once steam starts to escape from under the cover, let cook for 15
  minutes. Turn off the heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes more. From
  Alex Patout's "Cajun Home Cooking"  Published by Randon House Alex says,
  "Serves 2 Cajuns, 4 elsewhere."  He writes, "We like to lay out the crabs
  and vegetables on a large table covered with lots of paper and have a
  feast."
