1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup flour
4 eggs

CRAB FILLING

1/2 cup sour cream
2 T. finely chopped onion
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. dill weed
1 tsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 lb. crabmeat

In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, bring water, butter and salt to a boil. Add flour all at once; stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until smooth and shiny.

Drop by tablespoonfuls 3 in. apart onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks. Immediately split puffs open; remove and discard soft dough from inside. Cool puffs completely.

For filling, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, onion, salt, dill, lemon juice and pepper in a bowl. Fold in the crab. Fill bottom halves of puffs; replace tops. Serve immediately.
