Stuffed spider crab, usually with its meat mixed with mayonnaise or mustard sauce with a little curry.
The edible crab measuring as much as 20 cm (8”) across. This is a beast with well flavoured, succulent brown and white meat. I prefer a good fresh crab to lobster, though a good fresh lobster will do! The brown meat is held inside the carapace or shell, while the white meat is found, with a little effort, in the claws. It is fished in the eastern side of the Atlantic rather than the Mediterranean but is available in markets not on the Atlantic.
Bonito. A migratory fish which is available up to 25 lb (11.3 kg). Often sold as tuna, though it is not.
