lump crab
Premium picked crustacean
Lump crab is crabmeat consisting of large, whole pieces from the body of the crab, prized for its tender texture and sweet flavor.
It's distinguished from claw meat or shredded crab, and commands premium prices.
Lump crab appears in dishes where visible chunks matter: crab cakes made with jumbo lump crab, a lump crab salad.
