Crab and brown shrimp pizza

Recipe review

One of the best pizzas, ever!

5/5 This was glorious, and so seefoody! Jerry, aka Chef (talk)

Being a seafood lover I thought that crabmeat would be nice on a pizza. When Anne came in with the ingredients, she surprised me with a pack of peeled brown shrimps so I combined the two and made a fabulous pizza.

The only downside was the amount of liquid in the crabmeat, added to increase the nett weight rather than for any culinary reason. It made the pizza a little wet. Next time I make this I will spin the crabmeat in a salad spinner to reduce the amount of liquid. If you don't have a salad spinner just sit the crabmeat in a sieve for 30 minutes.
