Crab crostini appetizers

_**Editor's note:** The recipe and introductory text below are from Rick Tramonto's book_ [Fantastico!](http://www.ecookbooks.com/p-20589-fantastico.aspx?affiliateID=10053) Don't look any further for a succulent crab salad open-face sandwich. The little garlic toasts piled high with rich, moist crab can be polished off in one or two bites. I can't think of a better way to start a meal! Don't skimp on the crabmeat. You need only a pound, so buy the best you can find. Bon appétit!
