There are some givens, lots of greens, okra, simmered in water with bacon, ham or pig tail. crab is added after cooking in a separate bunch of seasonings. scallions,garlic, thyme, Scotch Bonnet or Habenero are essential items. I like the addition of lime and coconut to this version. We serve it over blanco rice.
