About Snow crab legs

Snow crab legs are a delicacy known for their sweet, tender, and flaky meat encased in a delicate shell. Commonly enjoyed in North American, Japanese, and coastal cuisines, these crustaceans are harvested from the cold waters of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Snow crab meat is naturally low in fat and calories, making it an excellent source of lean protein. It is also rich in vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin B12, zinc, and selenium, which support immune function and energy production. Additionally, snow crab legs contain heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. However, they can be high in sodium, particularly if pre-cooked or seasoned, so moderation is key for those monitoring sodium intake. Snow crab legs are typically steamed or boiled and served with melted butter or lemon, enhancing their natural flavor while keeping preparation simple and nutritious.
