Understanding Blue Swimming Crab Meat     

The Portunus Pelagicus, also known as blue swimming crab, is a premium grade of crab meat. For the past five decades, we have been hand picking our wild caught blue swimming crab meat from the blue oceans of Southeast Asia. Our Blue Swimming crab meat is harvested, steam cooked, and quickly hand packaged into airtight cans. We then pasteurize the meat in the hermetically sealed cans which gives the product an 18 month extended shelf-life. The process is done with the watchful eyes of our own Quality Assurance team to ensure exquisite taste and texture profile that meets our stringent requirements. Pasteurization is a controlled thermal process (heating and cooling) that eliminates any pathogens that would naturally occur in the processing of crab meat. Our Crab meat is hand picked to delicately extract the meat in as large pieces as possible. The picking teams are also trained to find and remove most of the shells in our processing plants. Our Pasteurized Blue Crab is one of the sweetest, tastiest meats on the retail market. Check out some of our favorite crab meat recipes.
