Computed from USDA FoodData Central SR Legacy (April 2018) per-100g values applied to ingredient gram weights derived from stated recipe quantities (grams used directly) or from USDA SR Legacy food_portion.csv household measures (tbsp/tsp/clove/'medium' item references) where recipe used volume/count units — see 'calculation' lines for each ingredient's basis. LOWER-BOUND ONLY: 'salt and pepper'/unspecified salt, unspecified sauces/dressings, and garnish-only items were excluded per instructions (no gram quantity given), so actual sodium (and to a lesser extent kcal/fat/carbs from such omissions) is almost certainly higher than shown. Unspecified/omitted ingredients: red chilli (q=0.25, no unit): no confident USDA SR Legacy match / reference weight found — EXCLUDED, not estimated; parsley: quantity unspecified (null) — EXCLUDED from macro totals
Calculation sources
- crab meat: 100.0 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 174205 (Crustaceans, crab, blue, cooked, moist heat) - picked/pasteurised crab meat assumed pre-cooked; blue crab used as general crab representative (species not specified in recipe)
- linguine: 90.0 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 169736 (Pasta, dry, enriched) - ANALOGUE for linguine (no linguine-specific entry); stated weight ASSUMED dry (uncooked) weight
- garlic, sliced: 3.0 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 169230 (Garlic, raw); USDA portion 1 clove = 3 g
- olive oil: 13.5 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 171413 (Oil, olive, salad or cooking); USDA portion 1 tbsp = 13.5 g
- lemon: 7.5 g -> USDA SR Legacy fdc 167747 (Lemon juice, raw) used as proxy for squeezed/sliced lemon wedge contribution; assumed juice yield ~30 g per whole lemon x q=0.25. Zest nutrient contribution not separately captured (negligible mass).
