For a True Gourmet Delicacy, Buy Softshell Crab

With a softshell crab, you can eat the entire crab without the often tedious task of searching for the meat under the shell. As it is the only softshell crab you can buy commercially, we sell the desirable blue crab. The blue crab's delicate and sweet flavor lends perfectly to this delicacy.

Softshell crab can be prepared many ways, including the traditional sauté method, which takes just a few minutes on each side. It also tastes great broiled, or for a unique treat, deep fry it. Softshell crab even works as tempura if battered instead of breaded. As versatile as it is, there is no reason you should save it as a rare indulgence. In addition, when you buy it from us, it is already prepared for cooking, which saves you time, so you can get started on enjoying this treat.
