Cooking Tips

How to prepare Snow Crab Legs

Frozen cooked crab legs may be steamed or microwaved. Place them frozen over boiling water and steam them covered tightly for 6 minutes. Or place the frozen crab legs in the microwave covered with a damp towel and heat on defrost for 5 minutes. Brush with melted butter, season to taste, and serve with cocktail sauce.

After the crabs are caught, they are cooked and cooled, and then dipped in a saline brine before being flash frozen. This saline brine helps seal in the moisture and freshness to preserve the best taste. It is recommended to rinse off your crab legs to help reduce the saltiness in the flavor.

Our Sources

Sourced from the cold Canadian waters of the North Atlantic and North Pacific Oceans, Canadian Opilio snow crab legs have a bright orange colored shell. The meat is softer and tender with a subtly sweet taste that pairs well with butter, seasonings, and side dishes.

The snow crab we source is quickly frozen in a saline brine shortly after being caught and cooked. This locks in the delicious, fresh flavor of the snow crab.

We offer Canadian Opilio snow crab legs by the cluster size, ranging from 10 oz to 14 oz.
