Soft shell crab

I went today to buy muscles for my dinner tomorrow and I bumped into these soft shelled crabs- I thought what my luck!!! I asked the guy at the fish market how many weeks are left in the season & he said maybe 2 or 3 weeks!!! What luck! For $4.50 a pop I thought they were a bargain.. I scratched my original lunch plans & fried these little guys right up. 

I used an egg & milk and then a flour, salt, pepper & old bay mix... I breaded them and fried them in veg oil.


I served them on ciabatta bread with some mayo & tomato... Because this fish market gets a daily delivery from New Bedford MA I have seriously never had more fresh soft shells & I had no idea they were so reasonable!!
