The Coach House’s Deviled-Crab Cakes
In 1983, Craig Claiborne wrote of his lifelong passion for crab cakes. “I have found that the dish has almost as many versions as clam chowder and fried chicken,” Mr. Claiborne said. These deviled-crab cakes are from the Coach House, at 110 Waverly Place in Greenwich Village, a space now occupied by Babbo. The crab cakes are made with fresh lump crab meat, and the recipe yields a spicy cake that is “admirably moist in the center and crisp on the exterior.”

Craig Claiborne’s Ambrosia
This mixture of oranges, bananas, grated coconut and sugar is a dessert that is considered by many to be as Southern as magnolias and mint juleps. Craig Claiborne brought this recipe to The Times in 1987 after spending Thanksgiving at the Elgin mansion house, a Greek Revival-style home, in Natchez, Miss., built between 1840 and 1855, and owned by Dr. William Calhoun and his wife, Ruth Ellen. Ethel Banta, Ms. Calhoun's sister, contributed this recipe. Need a few tips on how to segment citrus? Here's a video.
