Crab the Power source for Calcium, A great source of vitamin B12 and immunity-boosting zinc! I use something tangy to leach away that calcium into my broth! Tamarind, lemon and tomatoes works well! I always insist upon ‘shell crabs’ over shell-less! Yeah for calcium and that great flavor! If you got to eat crab…..it should be little hard to fight with your cutting player and hammer!! I love it!!!
