Soft shell crabs, or “softies” are blue crabs that have recently molted their shell. They are harvested before they can regrow a new shell, so their skin is soft. This means their entire bodies are edible: shell, claws, and all. Use to deep fry and make a sandwich or fry in your favorite cooling oil and breading to make a great meal. These crabs are fresh frozen and sold individually or by the half dozen. These are prime size and its a true blue crab. Wild caught in the USA.
*Note at certain times of year, this product may be substituted with a comparable soft shell crab (non blue crab) due to supply and demand issues.
