Blue Crabs
Blue crabs are a crustacean species native to the Atlantic coast and Gulf of Mexico, prized for their sweet, briny flavor and tender claw and body meat. These crabs are low in fat yet rich in high-quality protein, selenium, and zinc, offering a nutrient-dense seafood option. Typically steamed or boiled with Old Bay seasoning, they are often served whole in casual seafood feasts, requiring careful shell removal to access the delicate meat.
