Dungeness crabs are a prized seafood delicacy, beloved for their sweet, tender meat and versatility in culinary creations. Behind every live crab that reaches your kitchen lies a meticulously managed process that combines sustainability, innovation, and a commitment to delivering unparalleled freshness.
This article explores the journey of live Dungeness crabs from the Pacific Northwest to your table, detailing each step of the process to highlight the care and effort involved in maintaining their premium quality.
The journey of live Dungeness crabs begins in the cold, pristine waters of the Pacific Northwest.
Our crabs are sourced using environmentally friendly methods, including crab pots that minimize bycatch and prevent damage to marine habitats. By adhering to strict fishing regulations, we ensure the long-term health of Dungeness crab populations.
"Sustainability is not just a choice but a responsibility when it comes to preserving our oceans for future generations." – Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)
Dungeness crabs are harvested during specific seasons to allow populations to regenerate. This ensures a consistent supply without compromising ecological balance.
Once caught, the crabs are immediately transferred to specially designed holding tanks.
The tanks maintain controlled temperatures and oxygen levels, replicating the crabs’ natural environment. This reduces stress, which is essential for preserving their vitality during transport.
2. Sorting for QualityBefore shipping, crabs are sorted by size, weight, and health to ensure uniformity and excellence. Only the best crabs are selected for live delivery.
Transporting live Dungeness crabs is a complex process that relies on advanced technology and precision logistics.
