Crab timbale

Sweet crab, a little lemon and good olive oil, layered and turned out. It looks like far more work than it is.

Tender pieces with a gentle sweetness. Lovely in salads, timbales and starters, anywhere the crab should be seen as much as tasted.

Super premium, white

When it folds through a dish

Delicate and flaky, it carries other flavours beautifully. Made for crab cakes, pasta, quiches and anything baked.

Keep it simple
01

Open the pot. The crab is already picked, pasteurised and ready.

02

Season gently. Lemon, soft herbs and good olive oil are enough.

03

Serve chilled or just warmed through. Crab this good does not need much.

Sourcing

Looking after the sea

The Blue Swimming Crab is caught the traditional way, in pots that rest gently on the seabed and leave it undisturbed. Any females, young crabs or crabs carrying eggs go straight back to the water. It is a slower way to fish, and it is what keeps the crab coming back season after season.

We would rather do it properly than quickly. That same care goes into every pot that reaches your kitchen.

Light by nature. All the flavour of the sea without the heaviness.

Calcium and phosphorus

Two minerals your body uses every day, found naturally in crab meat.

Source of iron

A natural source of iron, as part of a balanced diet.

Omega-3

Like the best of the sea, blue swimming crab naturally contains Omega-3.
