Crab, Raw

Crab, Raw

EverydayRaw

Crab is a saltwater crustacean prized for its sweet, briny flavor and tender, flaky texture when cooked. Raw crab meat provides high-quality protein with minimal fat and is exceptionally rich in vitamin B12, selenium, and zinc. Sold live, whole, or as pre-shelled legs and claws, it requires thorough cooking to ensure food safety and develop its characteristic delicate taste, though some sushi-grade varieties are prepared raw under strict handling protocols. Shellfish allergies are a key dietary consideration with this ingredient.
