You can now remove the white meat from the body using a crab pick or skewer and the legs and claws by using a hammer or rolling pin to crack the shells. Once all the white meat is picked use your fingers to feel through the meat for any shell.Use a teaspoon to scrape out the brown meat from inside the corners of the main brown shellYour crab meat should be refrigerated until needed and eaten as fresh as possible within two days of cooking and picking.  Ingredients 100g fresh white crab meat200g dried squid ink linguine pasta or fresh squid ink pasta85ml extra virgin olive oil1 red chilli de seeded and sliced thin80g pine nuts1 clove garlic sliced thinly1 lemon10 cherry tomatoes cut into halves50g fresh rocket20g fresh chopped flat leaf parsley50g Parmesan for grating1 pinch chilli flakesCornish sea salt flakes  Method Start to cook the pasta in well-seasoned water until just cookedWarm a large non-stick pan and start to toast the pine nuts until golden in colour, then reduce the heat slightly and add the olive oilAdd the chilli, garlic, and chilli flakes to the warm oil and start to cook out being...

Turn the heat down if neededRemove the steak from the pan and place directly onto a shelve or a wire rack you can place into the ovenCook the steak in the oven making sure to turn the beef over onto the opposite side every 3 minutes, this allows even cooking through the meat, repeat this process for about 15-18 minutes or using a food thermometer the core temperature should be about 50c which will be a blushing pink/medium which I think is best for rib eye.Remove the steak from the oven and leave to rest on a rack at room temperature for 20 minutesIf the steak has cooled too much re warm in the oven and then carve and enjoy with the triple cooked chips Hosted on Acast.
