King Crab Legs

The king crabs we buy in stores are shipped to us from Alaska, and they are already cooked when we buy them. To maintain freshness, King crab fishermen cook and “flash freeze” their catch before it ever leaves the boat. So king crab only needs to be reheated. In fact, it can even be eaten cold, simply dipped in cocktail sauce.
