A harmful bacteria, known as "Vibrio parahaemolyticus," has been found in fresh, imported crab meat from Venezuela.
Una extraña criatura que parece salida de la película "Alien", capaz de soportar hasta un año sin alimentarse y de resistir temperaturas y salinidades extremas, produce la sangre más valiosa del mundo. La sangre azul del cangrejo herradura Y es que su cotizada sangre azul tiene numerosos usos médicos y es utilizada para salvar innumerables vidas humanas. Desde que en la década de 1950, unos científicos descubrieron que la sangre de color azul del cangrejo herradura se coagulaba en contacto con las bacteria E. coli y Salmonella, las investigaciones no han parado. Uno de estos últimos estudios se ha centrado que en la sangre de los cangrejos herradura elaboran defensas contra el Virus de la Inmunodeficiencia Humana. Los ensayos preclínicos muestran que es tan efectivo como la zidovudina, un medicamento clásico contra el sida. El secreto que hace que la sangre del cangrejo sea de gran de utilidad para la industria biomédica, es su simplicidad y efectividad de su sistema inmunológico, que produce enzimas protectoras en su organismo, ya que se ésta especie se encuentra en constante amenaza de infecciones en un hábitat, que puede contener miles de millones de bacterias por mililitro. A diferencia de los seres humanos, los cangrejos de herradura no tienen hemoglobina en la sangre, sino que utilizan la hemocianina para transportar oxígeno. Y es debido a la presencia de cobre en la hemocianina y no de hierro, que la sangre adquiere el peculiar color azul. Se requiere la sangre de alrededor de 500.000 cangrejos al año, a los que se les extrae alrededor de 100 mililitros, perforando el pericardio de su primitivo corazón. Durante el proceso el 15% de los cangrejos muere, los demás son devueltos al agua.

Yellow: the color of sunshine, lemons, bananas, and a surprising variety of animals. Though you may call them Mellow Yellow (quite rightly), these warmly tinted creatures don't take their hues lightly - and neither should you.
It was a beautiful weekend in the Bay Area. The skies had hues of crystal blue along with a few hints of cirrus clouds hanging around at 50,000 feet above ground. No wind in sight and my flip flops made it out of the closet and on to my feet. Spent Saturday in San Francisco at a leaders retreat workshop for a professional organization I belong to. It was a stunning day to spend the day in the city. San Francisco is known for its perfectly sweet crab and the season in full swing. On the way home, I picked up some Chicken of the Sea lump crab from Trader Joes since I promised hubby I would make my Crab Cake Sliders with Jalapeno Aioli. Click "Read More" below to continue I wanted to remind everyone that Chicken of the Sea is celebrating their 100th birthday this year and wanted to pay it forward as part of their celebration. They have invested One Million Dollars in the Great American Gratitude Tour.

You can pay it forward on a daily basis by doing simple random acts of kindness. It is all about being selfless, sincere, and compassionate and making a difference in someone else’s life. Just last night I was at Trader Joes and an older gentleman was behind me with three items in his hand and on the other hand had a basket full of items. It felt so good to say to him – why don’t you go ahead of me. He was so grateful but I think it brought me more joy than him. Think about how you can incorporate the words – “How can I help you?” as part of your everyday vocabulary. Here are 9 simple things you can do today to pay it forward: Hold the door open for the person behind you. Clean out your old clothes and donate them. What is old to you is new to someone else. Listen intently to someone’s stories without trying to fix everything. Simply say hello to a stranger Pay for the toll for the person behind you Become a mentor or tutor for someone in need Bake cookies for your neighbors or colleagues Send a nice email or handwritten note to someone you know to brighten their day Help someone get your parking space in a crowded parking lot when your leaving Last week I made Spicy Chicken ofthe Sea Potato Croquettes and this week my Crab Cake Sliders are making the way onto the scene. They are a two to three bite delight with a spicy kick and super satisfying. The sweetness of the crab shines through along with the crispy crust created from the panko coating. I adore the spicy kick of the jalapeno aioli and the rich bun that was grilled to perfection. I would suggest that you run don’t walk to pick up a container of the Chicken of the Sea lump crab meat – it is so delicious! Crab Cake Sliders 1 lb. Crab Meat 1 Red bell pepper (finely diced) 6 Green onions finely chopped, about 1 cup ½ c. Bread crumbs 2 t. Crushed garlic (from the jar is fine) 2 t. Dijon Mustard 1 Egg 1 T. Mayo 1 t. Worcestershire sauce ½ t. Salt ½ t. Pepper 3 Shakes of Tabasco sauce 1 T. Old Bay Seasoning 1 c. Panko bread crumbs ½ c. Vegetable oil Mix all of the ingredients (except panko bread crumbs and vegetable oil). Be careful not to over mix the crab. Use a small ice cream scooper to form the crab cakes. Place the panko in a separate bowl. Cover each crab cake with the panko bread crumbs. Place onto a large plate or cookie sheet and refrigerate until ready to fry and serve. To cook, add vegetable oil to large frying pan and heat to medium heat – you do not want to burn the crab cakes. Fry on each side until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel and serve immediately with lemon aioli. Jalapeno Aioli 2/3 Cup Mayo 1/3 Cup Minced Scallions 1 Seeded Jalapeno, minced Zest of one lemon Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and let sit in refrigerator until ready to serve. Makes about 25 small or 8 to 10 large crab cakes Disclosure: Compensation was provided by Chicken of the Sea.
