KING CRAB

Serves: 4   |   Preparation: 40 mins   |   Cooking time: 20 mins

  • 8 lbs of live king crab
  • 1 Bannock bread
  • 250g butter
  • 6 cloves of garlic

1. Fill the crab cooking stockpot (40 quarts) with crystal-clear, ice-cold water, making sure that the king crab is going to be completely immersed.

2.Peel the garlic cloves. Thinly slice half of the cloves and chop the rest.

3. Heat and melt 250g of butter in a small cooking pot. When the bubbling, hot butter has drawn to a fluid condition, turn-off the flame and blend in the mix of fresh, sliced and chopped garlic cloves to finish the dipping sauce.

4. Slide a sheet of Bannock into the oven and carefully bake it at 350 degrees for 20 minutes until the crust of the freshly made bread turns golden-brown and glazy.

5. Heat the stockpot until the water is boiling (approx. 30 minutes). Carefully place the king crab in the stockpot and cook for seven minutes. You will know when the crab is ready as the foaming steam, whistling out of the cooker, will have a scent of tasty, tender crab meat and the foggy ocean and the colour of the shell changed to a beautiful orange-red.

Here, Philip shares his recipe for freshly prepared, traditionally smoked or plank cooked salmon

– a dish that is famous all over the world.

BARBECUED CRACKLING CEDAR-PLANKED SALMON

Serves: 2   |   Preparation: 60 mins   |   Cooking time: 30 mins

  • 1 fresh cedar wood plank
    – 1⁄4 inch thick (soaked in water overnight)
  • 2 lbs fresh salmon filet
  • 10g ground black pepper
  • 200g brown sugar
  • 100g fresh dill
  • 10g coarse sea salt

Serves: 2
Preparation: 60 mins
Cooking time: 30 mins

  • 1 fresh cedar wood plank – 1⁄4 inch thick (soaked in water overnight)
  • 2 lbs fresh salmon filet
  • 200g brown sugar
  • 10g coarse sea salt
  • 10g ground black pepper
  • 100g fresh dill

1. Cut the cedar plank to length of the salmon filet and soak it, completely immersed, in cold, clear water overnight.

2. Prepare the salmon fillet and remove remaining bones if necessary.

3. Mix the coarse sea salt with ground black pepper, chopped dill and brown sugar.

4. Apply the mix of spices and brown sugar and gently rub it onto the meat of the salmon.

5. Place the seasoned salmon, skin side down, onto the soaked and wet cedar wood plank.

6. Barbecue the plank salmon on a charcoal- or gas-grill, with lid closed, for 30 minutes at 200°C, until the meat of the salmon filet solidifies and is developing a flaky texture, candied bubbles climbing out of the meat and the crust turning crunchy. Infusing smoke, as well as natural oils within the cedar plank, will produce a complex, aromatic wood flavour. The cedar wood plank should not catch fire during the cooking procedure.
