LUMP 'N' LINGUINE

Steps:

• Scrub clams or mussels; pick over crab meat or peel shrimp. (For clams, purge sand by placing in a bowl and covering with cold water. Sprinkle with cornmeal or flour and refrigerate 3 hours. Drain and rinse.)
• If using clams or mussels, place in saucepan with crab jus and boil until the shellfish open, shaking the pan and stirring so the juice of the shellfish and crab jus mix. If using crab meat or shrimp, add crab jus and cook until the crab is heated through or the shrimp turns pink. Do not overcook.
• Divide the linguine among 4 dishes. Top with clams or crab and the crab jus. Sprinkle with cheese.

MARINO'S CRAB JUS

Steps:

• In a deep saucepan heat the oil and cook the garlic till soft but not browned. Stir. Add the parsley and cook for a few minutes. Stir in the chopped peppers, salt and pepper.
• In a separate pan, boil the beer. The beer will foam, and when the foam dies down, continue to boil for 1 more minute. Add the beer and butter to the garlic mixture and mix well. Arrange the crabs in layers in their cooking pot and cover with the beer mixture. Shake the pan to get the liquid into the crabs. Bring to a boil, quickly lower the heat and simmer the crabs for 7 minutes, shaking the pan to jolt the juice out of the crabs. Do not overcook or the meat will get mushy. Remove the crabs. Serve with linguine below.
