Trying to get the recipe to the Smashin Crab Trinity sauce and the link is broken. Where might I be able to find it?
Tanji says
We are working on locating the recipe both on the backend (where it’s also missing) and with the restaurant. Our restaurant friends are all under a huge degree of stress and working extra hard right now, so thank you for your patience. As soon as we locate it, I’ll let you know. 🙂
