Рецепт "Desert" Low Boil
I was hankering for an old fashioned New England Clam Bake or Lobster boil. We are from CT nearing our 13th year in southern NM. So, a lobster boil or clam bake is not a choice except for a very special occasion and we must order the seafood on-line. I searched several on-line sites and found that a "Low Boil" is similar to a New England seafood boil sans the lobster and clams. The Low Boil fit the craving.
I make do with seafood items that I can buy locally and essentially followed the many recipes that I read on-line. My version includes pressed garlic and turkey kielbasa in lieu of other types of kielbasa/sausages. Hope you enjoy the meal. Mangia!

Инструкции
- Thaw the Snow Crab then chop into pieces that will fit in the pot.
- Thaw the corn halves.
- Thaw the shrimp and remove shells. Set shells aside. Devein the shrimp, rinse and set aside. Rinse the shells and freeze to make a shrimp stock at later date.
- Smash the garlic cloves with your palm or knife and remove skins. Set aside.
- Wash and cut the red potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on your style.
- Fill a stock or large pot with water and set on burner. Add potatoes and all the kielbasa coins.
- Press all the garlic cloves into the mix, stir, then turn burner on to begin the boiling process.
- Add one to three TBSP's of Old Bay Seasoning. The recipes I read called for one to three TBSP's. I was conservative and only added one TBSP. I will use two or three TBSP's next time because we could not taste the single TBSP in the servings.
- Add the corn to the pot once the potatoes are nearly fork tender.
- After five minutes, add all the crab.
- After three minutes add the shrimp but make sure to boil for only three minutes to avoid over-cooking the crab and shrimp.
- After that last three minute interlude remove the pot and pour contents into a colander.
- Pour the food onto a platter and serve.
