Remembering Berry Berenson Perkins, a Victim of 9/11. Berry Berenson Perkins was the personification of unconditional love. On 9/11 after the towers fell, I was driving to a meeting to be with my sober family when my cell phone rang. Carole, sorry to hear about Berry, my friend Heather Mac Rae said.
Make the water deep enough to cover the crab. Bring the water to a roiling boil and place the frozen crab inside. Keep heat on high to maintain the boil--adjust lower if it looks like it is going to boil over. Foam may form--scoop it out with a ladle or lower the heat and leave the top off. Boil for about 12 minutes.
In a large pasta pot with strainer insert, bring 3-4 cups water to boil. (Water amount may vary, but just keep below the level of the strainer portion of the pot.). Rinse ice from frozen crab legs, and place in the strainer insert of the pot. Cover. Steam crab legs for 6 to 14 minutes, or until heated through. Serve crab legs with clarified butter for dipping. (Recipe #51525 works well.).
