Crabmeat Stuffing
 #185593
 Diane (Virginia) says:
Directions don't address treatment of the 2 raw eggs that are combined with the crabmeat. It seems the only heat the eggs get is from the sautéed veggies that are added to the bowl containing the crabmeat-eggs mix. Is it to be implied/assumed that the eggs get cooked when 'used to stuff chicken, fish fillets or lobster tails'?

Hi Diane,

This is a recipe for "stuffing" so you should cook whatever you're making until the stuffing is heated through to 160°F.
