Lobster Sauce Crab image

This is from the Diana Liu cookbook. The black beans in this are asian salted black beans. They are also called fermented black beans. You can purchase these in most asian markets. I have made this and subbed the crab with 1 lb. shrimp (deveined and shelled) with great results.
