About Snow crab, legs only, frozen

Crab is a popular shellfish prized for its sweet, delicate, lightly briny meat, harvested from coastal and ocean waters worldwide in varieties such as blue, Dungeness, snow, king, and stone crab. The tender white body meat and richer claw meat have a naturally sweet flavor that needs little more than butter, lemon, or a touch of seasoning. Crab is high in lean protein and low in fat, supplying vitamin B12, zinc, selenium, copper, and some omega-3 fatty acids.

It is enjoyed steamed or boiled and cracked at the table, picked into crab cakes, salads, dips, and rolls, folded into bisque and chowder, or tucked into sushi and pasta. Fresh-cooked crab is best eaten promptly, while pasteurized lump crabmeat offers convenience. Look for crab that smells clean and sweet like the sea, not fishy, keep it well chilled, and use fresh crabmeat within a day or two.
