From 10 AM - noon on June 25th, join GreenCrab.org and Eating with the Ecosystem at the Maine Food and Beverage Education Center for an intensive workshop all about cooking with green crabs! This workshop will break down preparing green crabs in a restaurant setting while highlighting two Maine products made with green crab: Maine Garum Company's Crab Garum and Khmer Maine's Salted Crab. Chefs, including James Beard Award-Winner David Standridge, will break down cooking, storing, and processing green crabs. Programming will also touch on Front-of-House communications strategies for marketing green crab dishes. Tickets for this class are $40 for the general public but we're giving away 15 free tickets for Maine restaurant workers! Contact maryparks@greencrab.org for a promo code.

This event takes place during Green Crab Week: a national celebration of green crabs as a seafood. Learn more about Green Crab Week and events here: www.greencrab.org/green-crab-week.
