The Snow crab would be considered a good crab species to
try as it is similar to the King crab with regard to having chunky leg meat. These crabs also produce a newer
shell under the old one, eventually molting the old one.
This crab is very handy for the
everyday consumer as it is very high in numbers and easily available from most markets. Due to the high
numbers of this species, the prices are lower, meaning more than the rich can try this crab. Not only that,
they are still packed full of flavour and have a very crabby taste. They are also as healthy as other crabs
with very high protein content, very low in fat and would benefit your diet by any ones
standards.
With an average weight of 1-3 pounds and only 90 calories
in a 3oz serving, snow crab nutrition is as delicious as its ease of preparation. Cleaned and pre-cooked
before being flash frozen, its freshly caught taste is preserved and ready for you to heat at your
convenience.
Biomass: In the Bering Sea, snow crab
mature male biomass currently exceeds the target level.
Aquaculture: There is currently no
aquaculture of snow crab in the U.S.
