Small Dressed Crab

From £9.00 Per Portion

Cornish crab is the best in the world - we honestly believe it to be true! All of the crab that we source is pot-caught around the clear blue waters of the Cornish coast. The crab are then carefully cooked and painstakingly handpicked, to ensure we offer the finest quality possible. The white meat is picked mainly from the claws and legs , with a little from the back of the body cavity. It is sweet, succulent and delicate. The brown meat is picked from the top of the shell cavity and is more robust and punchy. In this Small Dressed Crab, you can enjoy both, as it contains approximately 120g of brown meat and 60g of white.

Landed by boats like The Emma Louise and Intuision fishing Cornish waters out of Newlyn

Health & Nutrition

Did you know that crab meat is not only super delicious, but also super healthy. Both white and brown meat are superior sources Omega 3 oils, containing 1,892 mg of Omega 3 per 100 g of meat! Crab is also one of the healthiest sources of protein, is particularly rich in Selenium which plays a key role in the human’s antioxidant defence system, and is a rich source of vitamins (particularly Vitamin B2) and minerals.
Basically it is a superfood!

Sustainability & Provenance

Cornish Brown Crab stocks are healthy, and all of the crab that we source is pot-caught, which is one of the most sustainable methods of fishing. It is both low impact and very selective, and it allows for undersized and berried females to be returned to the water unharmed. Read more

Customer reviews

Dear FFT, you have a new fan!

Thank you. Had two orders last week. One for me and the other was a birthday present for my cousin Pamela. She called me to tell me that the crab was the sweetest most succulent she had ever eaten! Phoned the next day to say the same about the kippers and then sent pictures on Facebook to show the fish which she had cooked with black butter!

Top marks!

You are probably aware that I am in receipt of my fish order from you. Really impressed by the way everything was beautifully packed. Looking forward to sampling the Dressed Crab and Cocktail Claws, and of course the Provencal Fish Stew. Thank you.
