As we move into
the Spring and Summer months we would like to remind all of our
customers that we
CANNOT ship chocolate when the weather reaches certain
temperatures.

We're not sure where the idea of putting crab meat
in marinara sauce came from, though it's been around for a while. The
makers of Grandmom Concetta's Original Crab-inara Pasta Sauce say they
use a recipe that dates to 1929, from a grandmother who used to serve
it to relatives visiting the New Jersey shore. Some Marylanders like
to give these bottled sauces as gifts, and Chesapeake Bay expatriates
order them for a taste of home. But which crab marinara tastes best
over pasta? We boiled a batch of penne and conducted a blind tasting
of three sauces to find out.

What we thought:
This dark, thick sauce, made with blue crab, won us over with its
robust flavor. We didn't taste a lot of crab, but the crab meat was
nicely balanced with the other elements, including a lingering heat.
