Blue Crab from Gulf of Mexico

Tuesday, August 25, 2020

 Small size blue crab


We just got discount offer of boiled crabs from our neighborhood restaurant, bargaining price a big size crab US$ 12 a dozen.


Original price is US$ 36 a dozen, so we got a lot of discount, at least 70% of market price.


Many people love crabs or crustaceans or seafood, but, except fish, I got “allergic” if consume too much.


The crab is come from Gulf of Mexico and Western Atlantic Ocean, and called in different names:


- the blue crab

- Atlantic blue crab

- Chesapeake blue crab



Fresh blue crabs


Their population are spreading from Canada (Nova Scotia) to Maine (USA) to Latin America (Argentina).


Adult crab breeding in offshore waters, then larvae swim into coastal lines, and even into estuary waters to grow to consume size:

- weight, 5 to 16 oz (142 to 454 gr)

- length, include claws is 7.1 to 7.9 inches (18 to 20 cm).

  12. People make such a big deal about Alaska King Crab, but the only thing good about it is there is so much of it. Blue crab is much taster (or maybe it's just because I've caught and eaten crab since I was a kid.
