Crab Species and Origins

The king crab is a large crustacean native to Kamchatka, Norway, and the North Pacific Ocean. Depending on its origin, it may have a red or sometimes blue hue. Other varieties, such as the Patagonian or Tasmanian king crab, are also highly sought after. Larger than snow crab, it stands out for its meatier legs and golden flesh, renowned for its refined flavour. More delicate and easier to prepare than lobster (king crab vs. lobster), it is perfect for a variety of recipes — from king crab salads to more elaborate dishes. With its tender texture and subtle taste, it will elevate your culinary creations.
