I grew up on the North coast of Florida. We had such wonderful, fresh and seemingly unlimited seafood to eat. I reminisced with my mom recently that I thought we were poor because we consumed so much seafood! I mean, it came from the end of the street, right out of the Intracoastal Waterway or a block up the street to the Atlantic Ocean. You can still, in our old neighborhood in North Beach, St. Augustine, wade out in the water with a screwdriver, break off a fresh oyster and eat that bad boy right where it came from. That fresh.
I know better now. I know we were blessed. We particularly loved blue crab. Usually just boiled and picked, and now, in all their glory, crabcakes. This is a new recipe I put together as I am limiting my carb intake so this really cuts it to the bone. Enjoy!
