Cooked Dungeness Crab

Local cooked whole Dungeness crab yields a sweet, juicy flavor. Make sure it's a male and its carapace or shell is 6+ inches to support sustainable fishery practices.

The crab gets its name from the town of Dungeness, WA located along the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the body of water separating Washington and the Vancouver Island. The crab can be found along the shallow coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest.

Best cooking practice? Steamed and served with a melted butter-lemon-garlic dip.
