Crabbing off to a great start!

If you live in the coastal regions of North Carolina get your crab nets ready...
This season is off to a great start!
Here's Saturday afternoons catch of nice sized blueclaws. We caught about 20 or so with little returns to the water. We crabbed in New Bern along the bulkhead at the end of Neuse Blvd.

Baked Clams Season

Time to start fine tuning my baked clam recipes...

I made my clams this time sauteing mushrooms with onions, garlic and celery till caramelized in butter / olive oil and tossed in red pepper near the end then folded with clams.
Brought to a boil and added to stuffing.

Seasoned with fresh ground pepper and Old Bay. Topped off with Romano cheese / Italian seasoning then baked hot around 400 to crisp up the bread stuffing.

Delicious!

Here is the before image...

You can easily make this using aluminum baking clam shells and store bought canned clams.
