Our First Taste of Dungeness Crab this Year
Today, I purchase two Dungeness crabs from my favorite grocery store(Food Mart) for only 5.99/lb. Each crab weighs about 1.5 lbs. I only purchase two because David III is not eating with us. The crab is perfect with fresh lemons growing in my garden here in FO. We have turkey and ham last night so this is a good change of menu for us.
The Dungeness crab, Metacarcinus magister (formerly Cancer magister), is a species of crab that inhabits eelgrass beds and water bottoms on the west coast of North America. It typically grows to 20 cm (7.9 in) across the carapace and is a popular seafood. Its common name comes from the port of Dungeness, Washington. The crabs is a special attraction to tourists in the San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf during the Crab Season. The season for the San Francisco Bay starts in the second Tuesday of November.
