Crabs

Crabs may be prepared as lobsters. Take the meat from the shell, put into a pan, with butter, pepper, salt, and pinch of mace, and very small quantity of water; dredge with flour and cook slowly a few minutes. Serve hot. Break off the small claws, and lay in rows around the outer edge of the dish.
