Storage
Please place crab in refrigerator until ready to serve. We recommend eating your crab within 1-2 days of arrival for optimal quality.
Preparation
- Your crab is cooked, cleaned and ready for you to crack & eat!
- Crab is traditionally served chilled. You can enjoy it heated by steaming for 3-5
minutes.
How to crack a crab leg
- Separate each leg from the cluster with a gentle twist and tug.
- Twist crab leg at joint and pull out cartilage.
- Crack leg about half-way down with your hands and pull the shell off to slide the meat out. (You can also cut the leg open lengthwise with kitchen shears)
- Pull apart the shell and remove the meat.
- For the claw, use a nut cracker to loosen the shell and pull the meat out with a fork.
Serving suggestions
- Serve with melted butter and fresh lemons. You can use the included Roasted Garlic Herb butter for both your crab & sourdough!

We sell only the traditional Italian Dry salame, which exhibits a beneficial mold growth on the outside. This growth is essential to its flavor and longevity. Salame should be refrigerated once you receive it. The salame is cured, so the longer the salame is stored, the more moisture it will lose and harder the salame will become.
