crab

Ever order a California roll? Well, for one, that tells us that you’ve probably never read our 12 Sushi Commandments. But it also means that chances are high you have experienced the wonder that is imitation crab. So, what exactly is it, you ask? Read on.

Just as I make the Baltimore crab pretzel part of my everyday life, I discover the crabby snack, or simply "crabby." It's from Philly, as I discovered while watching Silver Linings Playbook, which is Oscar-nominated in every acting category. Truthfully I thought it was just meh, until I looked up what the hell a crabby snack actually was. Now I'm obsessed and spouting variations like it's my job.

On January 3, two days before the start of the NFL playoffs, we published a recipe for Baltimore crab pretzel sticks, which we researched and tested after a long investigation on the topic. You want to hit Bill Bateman's Bistro in Towson, Maryland for the real deal. Or, if you live far away from the Mid-Atlantic, you will want to follow the recipe. But we have to stay that publishing that recipe might just have been the best thing to happen to the Ravens in a long time.
