Preparing Cooked Snow Crab Legs is Easy

Snow crab is sweet, tender, and delicate with a clean flavour. Fully cooked and shelled — just gently warm or serve chilled.

Storage
  • Keep frozen at -18°C (0°F) or lower until ready to use.
  • Avoid moisture exposure.
  • Store thawed product in the refrigerator (3°C) and consume within 4 days.
Thawing
  • Overnight: Place in the refrigerator 8-10 hours before cooking.
  • Quick: Seal in a plastic bag and submerge in cold water for 20-30 minutes.
