A seasonal delicacy where the entire crab, including its shell, is eaten after molting, often fried or sautéed.
Soft-shell crab is a culinary term referring to crabs that have recently molted their old exoskeleton. These crabs are characterized by their soft texture, as they are harvested immediately after molting or just before to prevent their new shell from hardening. The process of obtaining soft-shell crabs is time-sensitive, requiring careful handling and climate control until the crabs molt and are ready for sale.
