Steps:
- Clean each crab. Lift one pointed side of top shell and remove the gills by pulling them out. Put top shell back down and repeat on other side. On the bottom side remove tail flap by twisting and pulling off. Using a pair of scissors, remove the face by cutting behind the eyes. Rinse the crabs thoroughly with cold water. Dry on paper towels.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees F). In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg and milk using a fork. In a separate bowl, stir salt and pepper into the flour. Lightly salt the crab, then dip in the flour, dip in the egg, then in the flour again.
- Carefully place crabs into the deep-fryer. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown on one side. Carefully turn over, and cook until golden on the other side. Drain on paper towels. Serve as soon as they are cool enough to eat. You can eat the whole crab.

Steps:
- Stir together first 7 ingredients, 1 teaspoon of the salt, and 1⁄2 teaspoon of the pepper in a bowl; set aside.
- Using a sharp pair of kitchen shears, snip off mouth and eyes of crabs; squeeze out gooey matter where cut was made. Carefully raise top shell on far left of crab. Use shears to cut away feathery-looking gills; repeat procedure on right side of crab. Turn crab over, and remove tough flap from stomach.
- Stir together flour and remaining 1⁄2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Dredge crabs in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Melt 2 tablespoons butter with 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high until hot. Add 3 prepared crabs; cook until golden brown and aromatic, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Place crabs on paper towels to drain and cool. Repeat with remaining butter, oil, and prepared crabs.
- Divide sauce, fried crabs, lettuce, and tomatoes evenly among potato rolls, and serve immediately.

- In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, dill pickle, red onion, tarragon, capers, Dijon mustard, and half the salt and pepper. This is your remoulade. Set aside until needed.
- Place the pancetta slices in a single layer in a large skillet or frying pan. Cook over medium heat, turning once, until the pancetta is crispy. This should take about 6 minutes. If you would like your pancetta to stay flat, weigh it down with a heavy pot lid that is smaller than the skillet or pan in use. Transfer the pancetta to a paper towel lined plate and wipe out the skillet.
- In the same pan, melt the butter and cooking oil. The butter will impart a nice, nutty flavor and the oil will keep it from burning. Season the soft shell crabs with salt and pepper and then dust them with flour. You want to be generous with the flour. Cook the crabs in the skillet over high heat, turning once, until they are crisp and golden. They should take about 5-7 minutes to cook all the way through, depending on the size.
- Spread your remoulade on the cut sides of the bun. Arrange the pancetta and the soft shell crabs on the bottom of the bun and the arugula and tomato on the top half. Close the sandwiches and cut them in half if desired.

- Heat a skillet on medium high heat that is large enough to fit all the crabs without crowding. Cook in batches if your pan is too small. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil then stir in the butter. Cook for 15 seconds before adding the white wine.
- In the meantime, mix the salt, chili pepper into the flour in a flat, shallow bowl or on a paper plate. Dredge the crabs one at a time, first through the flour and then through the egg mixture, and immediately add each one to the hot butter-wine sauce in the pan. It should sizzle a little bit and float in the sauce enough so they do not stick. Shake the pan a little to keep them from sticking, but do not use a utensil until the coating has solidified or it will fall off.
