    My nephew watched this episode, and wants to make this for us for dinner, but we can't figure out how to cook the "Special Crab Meat".
    Can anyone help me out with this/

    The recipe does not say to use kosher salt, but we all KNOW that's all AB cooks with! There's a BIG difference between the saltiness of table salt and kosher salt. Using kosher salt, I didn't find it salty at all.
