[Guest Post] Some Splendid Seafood Option to Consider by Mark

As soon as we are reminded of seafood, the options that come first in our mind are crabs, shrimps and lobsters. These delectable cuisines can make a perfect candle light dinner menu. Crab cakes are extremely delicious that can be served as appetizers or main course. You can either serve them on platter or can them for the purpose of stuffing your sandwiches or hamburger bun. The crab cakes have a traditional association with the Chesapeake Bay, the state of Maryland and the city of Baltimore.

Crab cakes are made with crab meat, bread crump, mustard sauce, mayonnaise, eggs, parsley, onions and few other seasonings. Though first introduced in UK, crab cake has emerged to be a very famous American recipe. Crab cakes these days are categorized as boardwalk style and restaurant style. Most importantly, these can be baked or fried so as to suit your taste. White crab meat or brown crab meat can be used to make these cakes. The meat of blue crabs which is the native habitat of the Chesapeake Bay is considered to be the best.

Maine lobster is one of the finest lobsters of the world found on the Atlantic coast of North America. This special lobster which once considered as poor man’s food has earned today a special position in the world of cuisines today. Every year in Downtown Rockland Maine in Harbor Park, the Maine lobster festival is being organized.

With the help of Maine lobster, you can go for a wide range of recipes. These recipes can be baked, stir fried, grilled, steamed, stuffed or used as fillings for rolls. In fact, the lobster shells can be boiled and the stock can be used to aromatize seafood soup stews and bisques.
