Deviled crab was originated in Tampa, Florida where it was established by the Spanish, Cuban and Italian immigrant community of Ybor City. The dish is traditionally made with blue crab. The seasoning uses a unique Cuban-style enchilada / sofrito sauce (locally known as "chilau")[2] whose spiciness lends the "devil'" moniker to the dish's English name. Deviled crab is meant to be eaten with one hand. It was developed during a cigar workers strike in the 1920s and is still popular in the Tampa area.
