 Absolutely. You can definitely do this with some wonderful Dungeness crab. You can bring in some Jonah crab. As long as it's a fresh crab and it's handled well, you're going to be really successful with this recipe. A couple of quick tips regardless of what crab you're using. I really like to drain our crab overnight and try to get it as dried out as possible. The drier the crab meat is before you start the recipe, the more fresh.
