The Skeena
Here’s a suggestion for making it through a cold and socially-distanced winter: learn how to butcher and cook a live crab.
The Hecate Strait has some truly amazing Dungeness crab and preparing is not difficult–as long as you follow the instructions of master crab butcher, Ray Pedersen, a Prince Rupert local who says he’s “literally butchered 1000 of them.”
“Watch what I do,” he says in a new tutorial posted to YouTube.
A word of warning however: slicing into a live crab and tearing out its guts is probably not a good activity for the squeamish.
