Live velvet crab ⚖
610009
The live crab (Macropipus puber) is prized by connoisseurs for its delicate, flavourful meat, which has a more pronounced taste than brown crab. Sold live in boxes of approximately 1 kg, it guarantees absolute freshness and exceptional quality. This product is carefully selected by our fishmongers at the Le Delas fish market in Rungis to guarantee optimal freshness.
Professional culinary uses:
The crab is an ingredient of choice for preparing delicious shellfish broths, bisques or fish soups, to which it adds an intense flavour. It can also be cooked and eaten plain or used to stuff dishes.
Storage and preparation tips:
These crabs are delivered live and must be kept cool, ideally in a damp, cool place, such as the crisper drawer of your refrigerator, covered with a damp cloth for up to 24 hours. It is essential to consume them very quickly after receipt to ensure their freshness.
