Season to taste. Handle the piquillo peppers very gently as they can be frustratingly fragile. Open the peppers and support them in one hand while you stuff them with the crab and shrimp mixture using a teaspoon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Just before serving, top the bread, if using, with the stuffed peppers (do not do this too early &#8216;cos the bread may go soggy). Either way, sprinkle over a few drained capers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">[A decorative squiggle of Marie Rose sauce on each pepper wouldn&#8217;t go amiss if you happen to have some in the cupboard\/refrigerator.]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"bodytext\"><a type=\"application\/pdf\" href=\"pdf\/PiquilloPeppersStuffedWithCrabAndShrimp.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\nGet a pdf version of this recipe<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The original of this recipe begins by cooking large raw prawns and making a sauce with the cooking liquid, shells and heads.
