    Fresh Dungeness crab and avocado are a match made in heaven. Here, the combination is transformed into a delicious appetizer served on crostini. Jimmy Nardello peppers, which originated in southern Italy, are a long, thin-skinned pepper with a sweet flavor. If you can’t find them, you can use another type of sweet pepper, such as a gypsy pepper or red bell pepper, cut into thin strips.

    Ingredients:


    • 4 Jimmy Nardello peppers, cut into rings
    • 1/4 cup (2 fl. oz./60 ml) Champagne vinegar
    • 2 Tbs. sugar
    • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
    • 3 avocados, halved and pitted
    • 3/4 cup (6 fl. oz./180 ml) extra-virgin olive oil
    • 3 Tbs. fresh lime juice
    • 1/2 lb. (250 g) cooked Dungeness crabmeat, picked over to remove any shell fragments
    • 1 sourdough batard, cut into 1/4-inch (6-mm) slices
    • Leaves from 2 fresh tarragon sprigs

    Directions:

    Put the peppers in a small bowl. In a small saucepan over high heat, combine the vinegar, 1/4 cup (2 fl. oz./60 ml) water and sugar and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pour over the peppers. Refrigerate until chilled. The peppers will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

    Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl. Add 1/4 cup (2 fl. oz./60 ml) of the olive oil and 2 Tbs. of the lime juice. Crush with the back of a fork until blended. Season generously with pepper and salt to taste.

    In another bowl, gently stir together the crabmeat, 1/4 cup (2 fl. oz./60 ml) of the olive oil and the remaining 1 Tbs. lime juice.

    Prepare a medium-hot fire in a grill, or preheat a stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.

    Brush the bread slices on both sides with the remaining 1/4 cup (2 fl. oz./60 ml) olive oil and season with salt. Grill the bread, turning once, until nicely grill-marked, about 2 minutes per side.

    To assemble, spread each crostini with some of the avocado. Top with the crabmeat and garnish with the pickled peppers and tarragon leaves. Serves 8.
