Black light for crab picking
carolmelancon
I was making crab dip today and thought to post this just in case everyone hasn't heard this yet. Think I learned this years ago from Susan Spicer: Use a black light when picking over crab meat. The shell bits fluoresce and "jump out" from the meat.

I owned a restaurant many years ago in Richmond, VA and served wonderful crab cakes. My source was a small picking house near the Chesapeake Bay that used a black light. It was such a clean pick that I bought all their production, sharing the production with a major private club here in Richmond. I can still smell that wonderful fresh crab meat today.

My first thought was that the black light literally makes the crab meat extrude out of the shell. Lol. It's been a long day
