Cuisine American
- 2 New England-style hot dog rolls
- Softened Butter
- 8 oz Lump Crabmeat
- 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp fresh tarragon chopped
- 1/2 tsp saffron threads
- the zest of 1 lemon
- a large pinch of Salt
- freshly ground white pepper
Butter the outsides of the New England-style hot dog rolls (or the interiors of regular hot dog buns) and place the buttered side in a frying pan or griddle on medium heat.
While the buns are grilling, gently mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl.
When the buns are golden brown (New England style buns need to be turned), divide the crab mixture between the two buns and serve.
The filling can be made in advance and refrigerated.
