We went to the beach a few weeks ago which is always a treat for cooking local SC seafood. On the way down we always stop at the Pee Dee Farmer's Market to buy green peanuts to boil where I also found fresh shelled whiteacre peas--had heard of them forever but never found. They were wonderful. DGD is vegan so I didn't add the usual bacon or ham to the cooking liquid--just onion. Delicious.
And in a real case of serendipity, our seafood market had soft shell crabs (in June!) and they were truly a treat. These were what are called "whales"--huge and meaty. They finished out a week that included shrimp and mussels at home--fried oysters and broiled scallops and grouper at our restaurant night. Good stuff!
