About this item

Hand-picked male crabs arrive alive with heavy claws and a hard, full shell. The meat inside is dense and sweet, and each claw cracks open into thick chunks that hold their shape through steaming or a slow braise. Set a whole crab in the middle of the table for a family dinner, or break the claws into a ginger and scallion stir-fry where the shell caramelises in the wok. They travel well in a ventilated crate and stay lively for a day, so you can cook them when the kitchen is ready rather than the moment the box lands.
