Indulge in the sweet, delicate flavor of Ocean Crown Lump Crab Meat, featuring large, intact pieces of crab that deliver restaurant-quality taste to your home kitchen. This convenient canned seafood contains jumbo lump crab meat, which consists of the largest white meat chunks from the crab's body, prized by chefs and home cooks alike for their impressive size and tender texture.
Ocean Crown Lump Crab Meat serves as the perfect foundation for elegant appetizers, hearty main dishes, and classic American seafood preparations. The substantial meat pieces make it ideal for crab cakes, where the large lumps remain intact during cooking, creating an impressive presentation. You can also incorporate this versatile seafood into creamy crab dip, stuffed mushrooms, seafood salad, or fold it into pasta dishes and risottos. The meat works beautifully in both hot and cold preparations, from traditional Maryland crab cakes to refreshing crab salad sandwiches.
When cooking with lump crab meat, handle it gently to preserve the beautiful large pieces that make this grade so special. Simply drain and pick through the meat to remove any remaining shell fragments before incorporating into your recipes. The sweet, briny flavor pairs wonderfully with fresh herbs like dill and chives, citrus, avocado, and mild seasonings that won't overpower the crab's natural taste. Keep refrigerated after opening and use within two days for optimal freshness and food safety.
