Mothers Day 2013: Serve Mom Crab Cakes

Tuesday, May 7th, 2013

Mother’s day is coming up this weekend, May 12th  2013. I am sure you’re not the only one flocking to Hallmark, to get that extra special card for that wonderful woman in your life. Most people think that Hallmark invented Mother’s day as a way to increase sales.

 

Yet, in the United States, Mother’s Day started nearly 150 years ago. When an Appalachian homemaker named Anna Jarvis organized a day to raise awareness of poor health conditions in her community. She believed this cause would be best advocated by mothers. So she decided upon herself to call that day “Mother’s Work Day.”

 

Anna began to lobby prominent businessmen and  politicians  to support her campaign to create a special day to honor mothers. In 1914, Woodrow Wilson signed a bill recognizing  Mother’s Day as a national holiday.

 

Ever since then, Mother’s Day has has become the most popular day of the year for sons and daughters to express appreciation  for their mother. Cards, candy and telephone calls tend to be ubiquitous that day too. Though they are great ways to appreciate mom, a better way to stand out is to give her some of the best crab cakes in all of Maryland.

Crabcakes are good for your health::Box Hill Crabcakes

Wednesday, June 20th, 2012

Box Hill Crabcakes is known for having the best crabcakes in the Maryland area. But did you know, that these tasty morsels are full of important vitamins?

 

Crab cakes are full of protein. Protein is  good for you because it provides energy and it also is the building blocks of the muscles. The more protein that you eat the healthier your body will be. Also a crab cake supplies 3 percent of the vitamin A and C your body needs every day. Your daily diet needs Vitamin A so you can foster healthier skin, vision and teeth. Vitamin C is important too since it helps maintain healthy bones and heals wounds. Vitamin C is also an antioxidant and that helps prevent harmful molecules from damaging your body. 

If you are in need of more calcium in your diet, then snack on a crab cake. Each crab cake provides 6 percent of your recommended daily intake of calcium and 4-8 percent of your iron intake.  If you don’t get enough calcium in your diet, your body wouldn’t be able to maintain strong bones and teeth. Iron is also vital to make hemoglobin which stores and carries blood throughout your body.

 

Remember that the next time you step into Box Hill Crabcakes, that you’re getting essential vitamins with every crab cake you eat.

Are Broiled Crabcakes Healthy?

BP Oil Spill Effects to be Felt by Maryland Crab Cake Lovers

Tuesday, September 13th, 2011

Maryland crab cake businesses will not escape the impact of the BP oil disaster, which will trickle down to the consumer.

Tom Kanaras, co-owner of Boxhill Crab Cakes, like other seafood restaurant owners, is watching the seafood industry one day at a time. The industry is being challenged not only by the BP oil spill, but by the hurricane forecasts, restrictive harvesting laws, and warm waters preventing harvesting: each challenge in and of itself potentially damaging. Put them together and you have a perfect storm that could drastically impact the seafood industry and seafood restaurants.

U.S. Crabmeat Supply Becoming Limited

Mr. Kanaras states, “Supply and demand is affecting our Maryland crab cake restaurant business. There are fewer sources of U.S. crabmeat but consumer demand is still high. Our big challenge will be where we get our winter crabmeat.”

Since the Gulf Coast crabmeat supply is more limited than ever and east coast crabmeat is not available during the winter, crabmeat will have to come from other areas – such as foreign suppliers. Even though some consumers are leery of foreign seafood, foreign suppliers may end up being a major source of crabmeat and other seafood.

Consumers can expect more foreign seafood being served in restaurants as U.S. suppliers cannot meet the demand.  Seafood industry insiders report that Phillips Foods already uses foreign seafood and has a strategy in place to corner the Indonesian crab meat market that will leverage their Indonesia crab processing facilities.

Tom Kanaras believes foreign crabmeat is safe (due to advanced pasteurization processes) and of high quality; especially Indonesian crabmeat. If Kanaras has to use foreign crabmeat, he will gladly inform his customers about the source of the meat.

Expect Maryland Crab Cake Prices to Go Up – But Don’t Settle for Less Quality

Right now, crabmeat prices are $16-$17/pound, which could climb to $20.  Some restaurateurs feel that the quality of the crab cakes will have to suffer because of the higher prices.

Tom Kanaras has a different point-of-view: “We will not cut back on the quality of our world-famous crab cakes. Our proprietary recipe has been around too long. We’re doing a lot of praying and crossing our fingers that the prices don’t have to go up but if they do, our customers can always enjoy the same quality that we have delivered for over a quarter of a century.”
