The Dungeness Crab gets its common name from the town of Dungeness, Washington, now called Old Town Dungeness, where the first commercial harvesting of the crab was done. The Dungeness Crab is widely considered one of the most favorful crabs on the market. Often eaten from the shell, it is also popular in pasta dishes, crab cocktails, and quiche.
This is a great recipe for shucked dungeness crab meat or any leftover king crab meat. The Crab Quiche blends the flavor of the crab into a perfect lunch or dinner starter course.
