Sweet-tasting Norwegian King Crab is a relatively recent introduction to the U.S., but it has quickly earned its place as a true delicacy.
Origin:
The coastal waters and tributaries of the southern region of the Barents Sea
Availability: October - December
Size: Shell can reach 9 inches long, weighing up to 17 pounds
The Fish:
Norwegian Red King Crab was only introduced to our waters in the 1960s, but it has already secured its place as a true delicacy. This is partly due to its spectacularly juicy claw meat and partly because of its versatility in hot and cold dishes. Below you’ll find out what else makes Norwegian Red King Crab so unique.
The Red King Crab experiment:
The Red King Crab hasn’t always lived in the Barents Sea. In fact, Soviet scientists introduced this particular species of crab the 1960s to help the people of Murmansk earn a living. Its stock has increased significantly since then, spreading throughout the cold, clear waters of the Barents Sea.
