Soft-shell crabs are back in season! If you're looking for a quick and light lunch, fry up a soft-shell crab or try one of our handmade fish burgers. Simply cook the fish burger on the stovetop, or soak the soft-shell crabs in milk for 10 minutes, then pat dry, season, and dredge in cornmeal or flour. Cook in a pan with oil until browned and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Serve on a brioche bun with blanched ramps, @sirkensingtons spicy chipotle mayo, and lettuce for a Springtime-inspired seafood sandwich. If you can’t find ramps, try @aerofarms spicy micro-greens. 🔥.

Spring is here, which means that the local docks are welcoming the return of striped and black sea bass. We love to pair these fish with fresh cockles and bright spring vegetables for a light, bright meal that's perfect for the season. Get the recipe on Sourced, the FreshDirect blog. Link in our stories.

What You’ll Need:
4 8-10 ounce striped bass fillets or similar white fish
2 pounds cockles
1 bunch ramps, sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 bunch asparagus
5 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper

What to Do:
•Prep your seafood: Rinse cockles in cold water to wash away any sand. Pat sea bass dry fillets with paper towels, cut in half, and season with salt and pepper.
•Blanch asparagus in boiling salted water for 30 seconds. Drain and chill.
•In a dutch oven or large sauté pan, over medium heat, add olive oil and ramps. Sauté for a minute. Nestle fish in pan and add cockles. Pour the white wine into the pan and cover.
•After a few minutes, turn heat down to low and simmer for a total of 10 minutes, shaking pan occasionally. •Carefully fold in asparagus and allow to rest covered for a minute.
•Remove fillets and place in a large serving platter. Arrange cockles and vegetables on platter and add broth from pan to the platter.

This Earth Month, our partner Bowery Farming is partnering with The Nature Conservancy to shine a light on the importance of restoration efforts. The conservancy promotes initiatives like letting degraded land re-wild and restoring biodiversity to ecosystems. In turn, Bowery Farming is educating consumers about how indoor vertical farming can be a vital component of resilient food systems. Bowery achieves this through pesticide-free sustainable indoor farming (hydroponics), using recycled water, and by giving back to hunger relief and other community organizations. You can support these efforts by making a big delicious salad or smoothie using their produce! 🥬

🌏 Happy Earth Day! Continue getting to know the people behind your FreshDirect order with this month's timely Employee Spotlight, featuring Annemiek de Graaf, FreshDirect's first Sustainability & Health Lead and Project Manager. Annamiek has been with us just under three months and already is having a big impact. We're excited to share about these efforts in the coming weeks and months. For now, meet Annamiek!

What's your favorite part about working at FD?
My favorite part of working at FreshDirect is the passion everyone has for great food, the focus on good quality ingredients and the direct relations we have with our suppliers. I joined FreshDirect 2.5 months ago, focusing on sustainability. I quickly learned that because of this passion for high quality food, sustainability is already embedded in many things we do, from sourcing locally and from regenerative farms to supporting our communities by donating unsold food.

What's something you've learned through working at FD?
Grocery retail is a fast paced industry, and adding e-commerce and New York City to the mix makes FreshDirect unique. There is a true go-do mindset which helps in the journey we’re on with regards to sustainability.

What has/does working at FD allow you to do in your personal life (go to college, support your family, buy a house, send your kids to school, travel to see your family, etc.)
It allowed me to move from Amsterdam to New York City, a personal dream that became reality. Still pinching.. 

What's a goal or a dream that you have?
A personal goal is to run the NY Marathon, so while I am here I will try to make that work!

THIS salad, because sometimes getting into or sticking to healthy eating can be like getting into Mondays: we need to add some fun extras to make it a bit easier. 🥗 @sarahlovessalad does just that, with BBQ chicken breast and tater tots to zhuzh up the deliciously virtuous little gem lettuces, pea shoots, purple diakon radish, cucumber, carrots, and avocado, all tossed with homemade buttermilk ranch dressing. We've gathered all the ingredients you'll need in the shop/products button here. 🤗

We are excited to partner with Iceland-based Matorka, a world leader in sustainable aquaculture. This partnership allows us to offer you the best tasting Arctic char and steelhead available. Matorka raises these fish using a land-based farm uniquely powered by the glacial waters that flow through it, to ensure a carbon neutral footprint.  Using the pristine ocean waters surrounding the sea farm creates fish that have superior flavor and texture, making them great choices for both raw and cooked preparations.
