This dish was such a disappointment. The display is absolutely beautiful on the plate, but the flavor is just not there. I followed the recipe and watched the show. It is not worth the effort! The polenta with orange was tasteless , the crab & fig salad boring, and the herb oil made the dish look pretty but did nothing to help the flavor. Take my advise and do not waste your money on making this dish.

"Outstanding!" That is the comment from my husband as he and my two small children devoured this last night.

I will admit to a substituion: I did not want to pay the $30/lb the local store was asking for Dungeness crab. Right next to that was Oregon Bay shrimp on sale for $3.99/lb. I knew it would not hold together as nicely as the crab, but I was willing to have a free-form meal and save $26. It was delicious.

I hesitated briefly on the figs, because it seemed an odd combination, but it was very good.

I look forward to making this again this summer when we go out and catch our own Dungeness crab.

This is a great recipe! It is really fun to prepare and looks more difficult than it actually is. I made these for dinner for 6 and everyone loved them! I also served the crab mixture in puff pastry cups as an appetizer - it was a hit again. (Put the pastry cups on the side and let guests fill the cups themselves - otherwise they get soggy.
Thanks!
