April and March are wonderful months for hiking and walking in New Zealand, particularly in the South Island. For hikers or trampers as they are called in New Zealand, March is characterised by warm weather and cool mornings â simply great hiking conditions. However, April remains a favourite hiking month for many as the autumn colours (particularly around Wanaka, Arrowtown and Queenstown in the South Island) are so beautiful.
Due to their enormous leg size, Alaskan king crab yields some very large pieces of meat. And, because the leg meat of Alaskan king crab is the most sought after, you canât find a species of crab which can compare.
Because they are so meaty, king crab legs tend to be more expensive than snow crab legs, the other top variety. Sweet, slightly salty snow crab has white meat with a pinkish hue and hails from the northern Pacific and the waters of Canada's east coast. Plan on one 4- to 8-ounce crab leg per serving.
