Fish FridayDid you know crab and other shellfish were likely on the table at the feast that inspired Thanksgiving? This holiday season, consider a sustainable (and delicious!) option: crab cakes. Check out the easy recipe from NOAA Fisheries and the Seafood Nutrition Partnership below.Blue crabs live all along the Atlantic Coast and are harvested by commercial and recreational fishermen. Their scientific name, Callinectes sapidus, means “beautiful savory swimmer”—fitting for these colorful creatures. With blue to olive‑green shells, bright blue claws, and red‑tipped claws on mature females, they’re unmistakable. Their shells can span up to 9 inches, and they use three pairs of walking legs plus paddle-like swimming legs to glide through the water.NOAA Fisheries and Seafood Nutrition Partnership’sEasy Crab CakeServings3 or 6Prep Time5Cook Time10Total Time15 minsIngredients: 1 1/2 cup mashed potatoes1 (8 oz.) can lump crab meat1/2 cup flour2 eggs, beaten1 cup Panko breadcrumbs1/4 cup Parmesan cheeseOlive oilInstructions1.
