In 1908, "Pop" Ernest Doelter was crowned the Abalone King. In the
kitchen of his Alvarado Street restaurant in Monterey, California,
Pop transformed rubbery gastropods into an epicurean delight.
Working with red abalone collected by Monterey's community of
Japanese divers, Pop dipped the foot in egg wash, added a secret
ingredient, rolled it in cracker crumbs and cooked it quickly in
olive oil. Tourists and celebrities alike sat down at Pop's table
to enjoy his famous recipe, and eventually, he shipped steaks on
ice to hotels and restaurants throughout the state. Pull up a chair
as historian Tim Thomas recounts the story of an innovative
restaurateur and a group of pioneering fishermen who turned
underappreciated mollusks into the talk of the 1915 San Francisco
World's Fair.
