Wishing I was fishing the Sauk
So what did you eat after that miniscule bite?
Never seen a dish made from 2 peices of a crab knuckle before!
2 dungees.
Actually, the entire circle under the fish roe was shredded crab…after the entire meal, including several dishes I didn’t take pics of, I was barely able to walk out of the joint…

Stews (amongst other things) taste better the next day…
Mrs. Salmo made a new to us Belgian beef stew Saturday, so we had that the last couple nights. What's not to like about beef stew?
Brute, you post some of the craziest foods I've never heard of. Who thinks up some of these dishes? Seems like something out of an acid trip.
Speaking from experience? (Jimi reference)…
You also post some fabulously looking dishes, so there's that. But really, what cooks think up some of that crazy stuff?
Mostly impoverished people cooking with what is regionally and seasonally available, which happens to be much different than what has traditionally been available in European-centric culinary viewpoints.
Spent the last week on the winter mushroom trail…
Chicken breast stuffed with black trumpets, fresh spinach and goat cheese. Roasted honeynut squash and hedgehog mushrooms.

Dungeness is my benchmark. I think of blue crab as a not very near second. How does stone crab compare? I do like key lime pie.
If you like the claw meat of Dungeness, it is similar…just more of it. Very sweet, and not cheap. Harvesting stone crabs here is usually by declawing one or both (usually one) claws as they can grow back and releasing the crab back to the water.
For years a Keys staple. Stone crab is indeed the best and it is illegal to harvest both claws. They need one to be able to feed. A commercial crabber who harvests both is cutting his own throat.
That’s what I thought in regard to one claw only…until I read a report on harvesting them. It makes no sense to me to me to harvest both claws
