Spoon a quarter of the mixture into a regular metal kitchen third-cup measure, squishing down to get it all in, then take it over to a salad-lined plate and unmold in the center of it. Just turn over, tap and the crabmeat should fall out. Continue with the remaining 3/4 of the crabmeat and the 3 other plates.

Equipment

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Grigio

Crab works really well with Chardonnay, Riesling, and Pinot Grigio. Chilled crab tastes great with pinot grigio. Warm crab (especially with butter) can be matched with a buttery Chardonnay or a crisp fruity Riesling. One wine you could try is Brick & Mortar Manchester Ridge Vineyard Chardonnay. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 40 dollars.
