About Dozen crabs
Dozen Crabs is a seafood dish featuring 12 fresh, steamed or boiled crabs, often enjoyed in coastal cuisines across the globe, particularly in Maryland-style or Southeast Asian cooking. Rich in lean protein, crab meat is an excellent source of essential nutrients like vitamin B12, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, brain function, and immunity. It's naturally low in fat and carbs, making it a popular choice for various diets. However, be mindful of the sodium content if the crabs are seasoned with salt-heavy spice blends. This dish is often served with melted butter, which can add saturated fat, or paired with vinegar-based dips for a lighter alternative. Whether cracked at a communal feast or used in recipes, such as crab cakes or soups, dozen crabs offer both nutritional benefits and the distinctive flavors of the sea.
