King Crab - A Royal Treat

King Crab - A Royal Treat

There are actually three species of Alaskan King Crab. Crab lovers all over know that their snow white meat is the most delicious in the world. All three species are delicious with delicate, sweet meat that tastes even better when dunked in hot melted butter. Here is a little primer on the three varieties.

Red King Crabs are dark burgundy in color, until they are cooked and their shells turn a bright red. Blue King Crab is very large, probably the largest of all the species. They are often marketed as red crab because they turn a bright orange-red when cooked. Uncooked, the shell is brown with blue highlights. Because of the enormous size of the claws of this species, it is highly prized.

Golden King Crabs are the smallest of the three species and present a very good value for your dollar. Their shells are brown, and their taste is very similar to the blue king crab.

Red King Crab is the most highly prized of the three, with very mild, sweet meat. They are generally sold by the pound and come fully cooked and frozen, to preserve all the freshness. The best way to purchase them is with online shopping to insure that they come directly to your door, ready for thawing and cooking, or freezer storage until you are ready for them.

With seafood, it is important to be able to trust that the crab has been stored appropriately from the moment it is butchered to the time it reaches your dinner table. The more hands it passes through, the higher the chance that something has not been quite up to snuff. Online shopping with Quality Fresh Seafood offers the best opportunity to get the most tender and delicate Large Red Crab King Legs for your meal.

To prepare, simply thaw the frozen crab in the refrigerator, preferably overnight. Never leave it out on the counter to thaw. If time is a problem, thaw it under cold, running water to speed up the process, but be sure to monitor it closely to prevent the crab from getting to warm. After it is completely thawed, simply prepare using your favorite method. Boiling, steaming or baking for approximately five to eight minutes are probably the most common ways to cook crab.

Enjoy your fresh delivery of frozen Red King Crab in all your favorite recipes or simply dunked in butter. It is a meal you wont soon forget!

Salmon

Salmon

Salmon is one of those fishes that must be absolutely the freshest available to make your dinner the best possible. In addition to being a delicious, meaty fish, salmon has health benefits that make it a great dinner choice.

Considered to be one of the healthiest foods you can eat, salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids which are known to be very important for prevention of heart disease. There is even some suggestion that omega-3 fatty acids may help with inflammatory diseases. This is great news for arthritis sufferers,and just gives us more reason to add salmon into our diets. Whether the help is significant or not remains to be seen and should be discussed with a doctor, but the fact is, it certainly can’t hurt to eat salmon as a regular part of a healthy diet.

If salmon is not very fresh, it will taste a bit fishy when prepared. When choosing salmon, remember that it should be firm. The color of this fish should be a bright pink, and the meat should have a healthy look. If it is sticky or smelly, don’t buy it. Fish in general should not have a strong odor. That is one indication that it has been around too long.

A great way to insure that your salmon will be fresh and flavorful, is to purchase it through an online service such as Quality Fresh Seafood. Providing only the freshest seafood is their standard, and the shipping is very fast. That is actually one of the key points to getting good, fresh seafood. Fast shipping makes a huge difference in the product.

Salmon can be prepared in a variety of ways, including smoked, fried, grilled, baked, sauteed, and more. One of the funniest suggestions I ever heard was to cook it in the dishwasher! With a little butter and lemon, the salmon is wrapped tightly in aluminum foil and place in the dishwasher on the hottest cycle. Sounds a bit like an episode of “Everybody Loves Raymond.” My caution if you are thinking of trying this is don’t add soap!

Salmon is great when paired with other seafood, like lobster tails. Baked or broiled with butter and lemon, the salmon complements whatever you serve.

Lobster - The Other White Meat

Lobster - The Other White Meat

Fresh, hot lobster is a delicacy. There is nothing quite like it. Steamed, grilled, broiled or boiled, fix it however you prefer, just dunk those beautiful chunks of succulent, white, lobster meat into melted butter and get ready for a tasted sensation.

It is hard to believe that during the 1800’s lobster was considered a food fit for only the poor people in society. Today we tend to think of lobster as a food of the elite! It is definitely considered a luxury food and is often reserved for special occasions. But, when you can get the freshest lobster at reasonable rates, it can quickly become a regular staple of your diet.

Most chefs recommend that you only purchase live lobster in order to obtain the very best quality possible. The most important thing to do when preparing a meal with lobster as the centerpiece, is to make sure that your lobster is absolutely as fresh as can be. Online shopping really does provide the best option as the live lobsters are packed in special boxes with frozen gel packs to preserve the appropriate environment, and see to it that they are delivered directly to your door.

We have all been to the local grocery stores and we’ve seen the lobster displays they have. Sometimes, they actually have a small tank with one or two sad looking lobsters. More likely, you will find frozen lobster tails. You have no way of knowing when that lobster was butchered or how long it has been frozen. This is not the best way to get great lobster.

Freshness. That is the number one priority for our seafood. It is so important, that it is part of the name! Quality Fresh Seafood has lobster options for your next party that will knock your socks off. The lobsters range from 1 1/4 pounds up to 10 pounds. They even offer a package with bib, lobster crackers, cloth napkin and wet naps to help clean up the drizzled butter.

So, next time you have a taste for sweet, succulent lobster, think about the advantage and quality from ordering it online. You choose the quantity, it is packed and shipped with overnight delivery. There is simply no better way to insure that your family will enjoy the freshest lobster around.
