Discover the wonders of the Olympic Peninsula at the Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival, held Oct. 10 and 11 in Port Angeles, Wash. The festival is the annual celebration of the region’s diverse bounty — the seafood, agriculture, maritime history, cultural traditions and the breathtaking coastal environment. The festival’s featured crustacean, the world famous Dungeness Crab, was named after the nearby village of Dungeness. Event venues are found along the Port Angeles waterfront — all within walking distance of each other.

Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival

Peninsula Daily NewsPenin

Catch your own at the Grab-a-Crab Derby $5 gets you 10 minutes to hook a crab!

p The Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival is the perfect place to try your hand at catching a Dungeness Crab. For just $5, you get 10 minutes to hook a crab from one of the 2,000-gallon tanks set up at the pier. If you’re successful, you can purchase the crab for below market value and have it cleaned and cooked right there!

Everyone who attends the festival has a chance to not just eat, but catch their very own Dungeness Crab. For just $5 you get 10 minutes to entice a hard-shelled crustacean onto your hook at the Grab-a-Crab Derby. No license or gear whatsoever is required. At City Pier, live crabs are held in two 2,000-gallon tanks provided by High Tide Seafoods. The scene at the crab tanks is “crabs flying everywhere and everyone having a great time,” says volunteer Kevin Kennedy. The derby has been a part of the Crab Festival since it began eight years ago. To make things a tad bit interesting, several of the crabs will be tagged before going into the tank. If you’re lucky enough to catch one of these tagged crabs, then the crab is yours for free. But even if your crab isn’t tagged, you can still purchase your catch at below market value. Then have your crab cleaned and cooked on the spot! Sunday afternoon, as the festival begins to wrap-up, the crab in the derby tank will be available for sale. The derby will close around 4 p.m. on Sunday, allowing for the crab remaining in the tanks to be purchased. The Peninsula College men’s basketball team, led by head coach Peter Stewart, will be on hand to clean your crab for a small donation.

Dan Schleve will once again be catching crab for this year’s crab feed and derby. Dan works for High Tide Seafoods, who is cosponsoring the event along with Wilder Auto. The commercial crabbing season opens Oct. 1, which is why the festival is held the second weekend of October each year. Our crab will be caught in Sequim Bay — as local and fresh as you can get! Dan will begin to build up a crab stockpile after the season opens and every crab will be live — plucked from local waters — when it gets to the festival. Besides providing tanks to support the derby efforts, High Tide also provides manpower for set up and clean up, cranes to move the tanks, and they pump water from the bay to keep the crab fresh. A crew of local volunteers led by Monte English, Leslie English, Kevin Kennedy and Jim Haguewood work behind the scenes to keep the derby rolling along. So come on out to the derby — they’ll be happy to give you a fishing pole and a few pointers to hook those pincers. The derby is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

crack a crab How to crack a Dungeness crab

Bring a pot of water to a boil, pour in some rock salt, bring water back to a boil and then add a whole crab. Beth says she cooks her crab for approximately 12 minutes, removes it and places the crab in a bowl of ice water for an additional 20 minutes. Place the crab on a table, belly-side up and pull back on triangular-shaped belly flap, or “apron.” Remove the shell by inserting your thumb between body and shell at rear of crab and then pulling up. Beth says the triangular flap is connected to the top part of the crab. When you pull back on it the shell comes loose. (So you have the shell in one hand and the body in the other.) Beth prefers to rinse out the roe (also called “crab butter”) by running it under cold water, but she acknowledges that some people like the “crab butter.” So, keep the roe or discard it, depending on your preference.

Use a knife to cut the crab’s body in half lengthwise or simply snap the body in half. You can squeeze the body between your thumb and forefinger Beth says. Then just pick out the white meat of the body and get to eating. Pull off and discard the spongy gills — usually brown and triangular in shape — and the cartilage separating the sections of meat. Twist off claws and legs (of course you can eat the legs first and then the body if you wish). Use a nutcracker, small hammer or your hands to crack open the leg shells. Beth says some people even use their teeth to open the shells. Pick out the meat with a lobster pick, fork or tip of a crab claw.

Don’t be intimidated by all the crab cracking — remember to have fun with it. It’s an easy process, and really just about finding whatever works best for you!

Michelle as culinary director in 1990, John hosted the Emmy-nominated cooking show Taste of the Northwest for four years.

While there, you can view information about the coast, Washington’s maritime heritage, marine life and preservation. Hop into the Deepworker Theater for a few minutes to see actual underwater videos produced and narrated by sanctuary researchers. To get an up close view of marine life, stop by the Feiro Marine Life Center, a nonprofit public aquarium located on the City Pier, which will also be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. The center is a partnership between Peninsula College and the City of Port Angeles. Visitors can spend hours observing the obvious — and not so obvious — marine life in the many tanks at the center. Come on in and have a look at the sea cucumbers, basket stars, rock fish, sponges, gunnels,

Crab Fest goes Mixed in with those bright red crab hats at Crab Fest will be a little green this year. The organizers of the Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival have started a new “go green” program that will eventually lead to the compositing of everything used in the Crab Central Pavilion tent. A popular festival inevitably comes along with a lot of waste from the serving ware that gets discarded. This year, all of the serving plates and beer glasses will be made of compostable materials.

Dungeness Crab Cake Co. • Dungenesss crab cake plate • Dungeness crab cake sandwich • Dungeness crab roll • Lemonade

“We want to set an example for other festivals,” says Toga Hertzog, owner of Toga’s Soup House and director of food services for the Crab Festival, on the decision to “go green.” Whereas a foam container could take hundreds of years to break down, a biodegradable cup could decompose in a few months. Although these items cost more than other disposable items, we feel the importance of protecting the environment is worth the added cost.

Port Angeles Crab House • Grilled wild salmon ciabatta sandwich • Crab House signature crab dip • Dungeness crab Louis • Crab cocktail

Wine & beer Pyramid Breweries and Olympic Distributing will be pouring Haywire Hefeweizen, Thunderhead India Pale Ale, and Pyramid seasonal ales. Wines will be served by the Olympic Peninsula Wineries. A complete list will be available at the festival.

No more tokens! Tokens will no longer be used in Crab Central! Cash will be accepted throughout the festival. The Crab Feed, festival merchandise booths and wine and beer garden will also accept Visa and Mastercard.

Sunday crab sale Beginning at 4 p.m. on Sunday, come down and buy the crab that have not been caught during the Crab Derby!

Chamber partners with Crab Fest There is a new co-producer to the 2009 Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival: the Port Angeles Regional Chamber of Commerce. Although “new” isn’t really the right word, as the chamber initially started the event eight years ago. The chamber is doing a lot of “behind the scenes” work, such as dealing with the finances, ordering the crabs and helping to coordinate the chef demonstrations.

Olympic Peninsula Celebrations

The mission of Olympic Peninsula Celebrations (OPC) is to preserve, protect, celebrate, and share the traditions and cultures of the Olympic Peninsula. Olympic Peninsula Celebrations is a Washington State non-profit corporation. A portion of the proceeds from The Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival will be channeled to marine, environmental education and the North Olympic Peninsula Skills Center.
