Dinner Recipe: Crab and Fondue for the Night Before a Party

A big holiday party draws helpers and overnight visitors for the weekend. The result is that you’ll need to throw a dinner party the night before the big party. So fun! The house is already decorated, you just need something festive…something delicious…something with only a few dishes…something everyone can chip in to prepare:

We were going to serve cheese fondue with trimmings, but local dungeness crab was on sale at the market. I picked up two cracked and cleaned crabs to add to the mix. For the fondue, we chopped up bread, broccoli, apples, pears and cornichons.
