Luncheon Oyster Crabs

A dainty luncheon dish is thus prepared: Split dainty crackers in two, toast, butter them and send them to the table. Let the hostess warm up a pint of oyster crabs in a chafing dish with a little butter, that is, just sufficient to keep the dainties from sticking to the dish. As they simply need warming through, a low flame is all that is required. They are so delicate that even salt other than that in the butter should not be added. Serve on the toasted cracker.
