Soft shell crabs are in at Mutual Fish!
Yes, it is that time of year again, when Mutual Fish has the great insight to ship soft shell crabs directly from Maryland so all us ex-Easterners can get a taste of the other coast.
Growing up on the Jersey shore, Blue Claw Crabs were a big part of our summers and to actually catch the coveted soft shell crab; well that was the greatest triumph of all! Give a call or stop by Mutual Fish for a true taste of the East Coast!
Select crabs that are still alive and moving.
To clean:
With scissors, cut off the eye area, then lift the back shell on each side and remove gills.
To prepare:
Soak crabs in buttermilk seasoned liberally with hot sauce for about an hour.
remove crabs from milk and let drain, dredge thru all purpose flour that has been seasoned with Old Bay seasoning, fry crabs in canola oil until shell turns red and crispy
serve immediately on mixed greens as salad accompaniment or on a crispy roll with lettuce, tomato and tartar sauce (and for those of you new to the SSC world…….yes, you eat it shell and all!)
