EverydayCooked

Crab meat, cooked, is the tender, flaky flesh harvested from various crab species, typically prepared by boiling or steaming. This lean seafood is notably low in calories and fat while providing high-quality protein, along with essential nutrients like vitamin B12 and selenium that support metabolic and immune functions. The sweet, briny flavor and delicate texture make it a versatile ingredient for dishes ranging from salads and crab cakes to bisques, though its subtle taste requires careful seasoning to enhance without overpowering.
