Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Prepare the crepes according to any standard recipe. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    If the crab meat is canned, it may be wet. Wrap it in cheesecloth, and squeeze gently to extract excess liquid. Do not break up the lumps.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the fish veloute, and stir in the cream, tarragon and cayenne. Gently fold in the crab meat.

  4. Step 4

    Lay out crepes on a flat surface, and add a twelfth of the crab mixture to each. Fold the crepes over to enclose the filling.

  5. Step 5

    Spoon an equal amount of the hot sauce onto each of four plates, leaving about ½ cup of sauce. Put three crepes on each plate, and spoon a little of the remaining sauce over each crepe and serve.
