30-60 minutes
ingredients
8 medium soft shell crabs
salt and pepper to taste
1 dash Old Bay Seasoning (optional)
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup butter
directions
Place crabs in bowl and cover with buttermilk. Soak for up to one hour, remove and pat dry.
Season flour with salt, pepper and seasoning and place on plate or in plastic bag. Lightly coat crabs with flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Melt butter over medium high heat in a pan or skillet large enough to hold the crabs in a single layer. Add crabs and immediately place a heavy weight such as a foil wrapped brick or heavy pan over them.
Cook for 3 minutes, remove weight and flip crabs. Cover with weight again and cook for 3 more minutes until crisp.
Serve immediately.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
