A crab cluster refers to a group of crab legs still attached to some meat from the crabs body. Crab clusters are sold for different types of crabs, such as Dungeness, king, and snow crabs. Dungeness crab legs are sold by the cluster, generally four to five legs each. King crab legs are often sold by the individual appendage, rather than in multi-leg clusters, because of their size. Snow crab legs are sold as clusters, which are groups of several legs connected to a portion of the crabs body. Snow crab clusters typically consist of the legs still attached to some meat from the crabs body. The meat of Dungeness crab is sweet, tender, and slightly nutty, and can be served dipped in butter or added to recipes from risotto to crab cakes. King crab legs hold large pieces of sweet, lobster-like meat, and one to two legs per person is recommended. Snow crab shells are easy to crack with your hands or seafood crackers to extract the sweet and briny meat, which is ideal for recipes that call for shredded pieces of crab.
