Instructions
Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan of salted water. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat; simmer until almost tender, about 5 minutes.
In a large nonstick or cast-iron frying pan, cook the bacon until crisp.
Remove the bacon from the pan and crumble it.
Pour off and reserve all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the pan.
Add the onion to the pan and cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until browned, about 8 minutes.
Remove the onion. Wipe out the pan.
In the same pan, heat the reserved bacon fat and enough oil to measure 3 tablespoons over moderately high heat.
Add the potatoes; let them cook, without stirring, for 6 minutes.
Add 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, stir, and cook the potatoes until well browned, about 6 minutes longer.
Add the onion and bacon and continue cooking until they are warm through, about 1 minute longer.
In a medium saucepan, heat the cream cheese, milk, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over moderately low heat, stirring, until hot, about 5 minutes.
Add the crab and black pepper and cook, stirring, until warm through, about 2 minutes longer. Stir the crab mixture and 2 tablespoons of the chives into the potatoes until just combined.
Serve topped with the remaining 1 tablespoon chives.
Wine Recommendation: The sweetness of crab is often at its best paired with a full-bodied chardonnay, which will also be good with the bacon, potatoes, and cream cheese. Try a bottle from California or Australia.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Muscadet, Riesling
Shellfish on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Muscadet, and Riesling. Buttery chardonnay is great for scallops, shrimp, crab, and lobster, while muscadet is a classic pick for mussels, oysters, and clams. If you've got some spice in your shellfish, a semi-dry riesling can balance out the heat. The A to Z Chardonnay with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
![A to Z Chardonnay]()
A to Z Chardonnay
The 2010 A to Z Chardonnay opens with aromas of white flowers, tangerine, lime, quince, wet stone and minerals that develop further into nutmeg, honey, green apple with hints of ginger. A mineral laden attack is bright, mouthwatering and intense. The nuanced mid-palate carries on with flavors that mirror and amplify the aromatics. The finish is long, clean, crisp and juicy with flavors of honeysuckle, citrus and wet stone. This wine exemplifies classic Oregon steely Chardonnay. 2010 was an exceptional vintage for white wines in Oregon and this sophisticated terroir driven wine is no exception; bright, tangy and intense it will deliver over the next 5 years.
