Fresh OystersOpen an oyster—Hold the oyster in your hand with the cup-shaped part downwards, the pointed hinge end nearest you. Slip your knife into the join between the lid and the cup. You may have to twist it a little to get access, but be careful not to grind too hard as you'll get flaky bits of shell in the oyster. Once your knife blade is in, slide it down towards the hinge and cut the hinge. The oyster will then open.
Shucked oysters arrive in jars and stay fresh for about 14 days. Enjoy them grilled, fried, or in oyster fritters.

Deep-Fried Oysters |
| 48 medium oysters 1/2 cup cornmeal 4 cups canola oil for frying 4 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup cracker meal 1 tablespoon sea salt |
|
|
Scrub the oysters and place them in a large bowl. Make sure to discard all broken shells or oysters that won't close. Fill the bowl with enough cold water to cover the oysters. Shake in the cornmeal and stir. Let the oysters sit for 3-6 hours, to let them purge any sand. Remove the oysters from the water and rinse thoroughly.
Shuck the oysters. Combine the flour and cracker meal and dredge the oysters in the mixture. Let the oysters sit, refrigerated, for 20 minutes.
Heat the oil to 350 degrees. Fry the oysters until crispy, about 3 minutes. Transfer the fried oysters to a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve hot with spicy seafood sauce.
Yield: 6-8 servings

About Us
Greg Cain started CrabPlace.com in 1997 in Crisfield, Maryland, America’s seafood capital. As business grew, his brother, Matt, joined the company to head up operations. The two began by selling and shipping fresh Maryland crab caught daily by local watermen. Their unique packing and delivery processes kept crabs at their freshest, and our satisfied customer base grew quickly. As a result, the company received the SBA Maryland Entrepreneurial Success of the Year Award in 2001.
In 2005, Greg and Matt invited Rebecca Gareis Bent into the CrabPlace.com family to be in charge of product development, photography, and marketing. She is a Baltimore native and the author of the cookbooks Burgers (2004), Down at the Shore (2006), and Everyday is Delicious (2007). She has been featured on the Today Show and ESPN, and in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and elsewhere. Her crab cake recipe earned CrabPlace.com recognition as “The Best” online crab cakes in 2006 from the Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine’s Annual “Best of the Best” Edition.
Greg, Matt, and Rebecca have been crabbing since they could walk, and still have fun pulling them in and teaching their own kids. They also take great pleasure in serving up CrabPlace.com seafood products to family and friends and sharing their passion for Chesapeake Bay foods and the shore lifestyle. Our many satisfied customers know we pride ourselves on delivering fresh seafood from our dock to your door, and to your table. We are committed to ensuring that our service is as outstanding as our food. Your complete satisfaction is our goal, and we back that up with our CrabPlace.com Guarantee.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful shore food and lifestyle with us!
