What Crab Talk offers
With roe crab, the actual crab matters more than the colour name. We look at the roe and the overall condition of the batch, then choose a cooking style that will not bury it under sauce.
Red Roe Crab
Selected for visible roe and overall crab condition.
Simple Steam
Keeps the natural flavour clear.
Grilled or Cold
Suitable when you want the roe to remain prominent.
How Red Roe differs
Red Roe and Yellow Roe can differ in colour, texture and flavour. The best choice is personal, so compare the actual batch rather than assuming one is automatically superior.
How to get better value
Choose based on roe fullness, body condition and planned cooking style. Heavy sauce can hide the quality you are paying for.
Reservation advice
Red Roe Crab is not guaranteed every day. Check the online store for the current listing before planning around a particular quantity.
