Ingredients

3 each large firm ripe pears

3/4 cup lemon juice

1-1/2 cups white lump crabmeat; cooked, picked, drained

1 recipe Curried Apricot Salad Dressing; * See Recipe

Directions

Prepare dressing by mixing the ingredients and chilling the dressing.

Acidify a bowl of iced water with 1/4 cup lemon juice. Peel, core and halve the pears, putting each directly into the acidified iced water bath.

Acidify boiling water with 1/4 cup lemon juice. Transfer pears from the cold water to the boiling water and boil pears for 3-4 minutes until just tender.

Transfer pears from boiling to iced water and cool down for about 10 minutes.

Remove pear halves from iced water and drain on paper toweling while brushing them with the remaining lemon juice. Keep chilled.

Alternatively, use firm, canned, well drained pear halves.

Pick, drain and chill crabmeat.

Place two pears, hollow side up, on a bed of shredded lettuce. Fill each pear with white lump crabmeat, topped with a large dollop of dressing.

Alternatively, coarsely chop the pears and gently toss with some of the dressing. Add the lumps of crab meat on top of this and put a dollop of dressing on top of the crab meat.
