5 fresh crabs

Methods/steps

1

I go to the seafood market at 5 am to buy fresh crabs. If I come late, I can't buy good crabs, so I have to buy some others to pick the rest. Hehe, it makes sense that the early bird has food.

2

After buying it, put the crab in the basin. The amount of water should drown the crab and choke it, or you will struggle to hurt your hand when washing crabs. I suggest you wear gloves. When washing, use the special toothbrush in the kitchen to clean the front, back, mouth and claws of the crab. Finally, carefully remove the holster that binds the crab. If the rubber band is not removed and heated, it will produce harmful substances. I suggest you delete it.

three

Put the washed crab claws face up, neatly on a large flat plate, and then sprinkle a little salt evenly on the crab (salt can help it steam out more delicious, and you can keep the original flavor of the crab without the help of ginger, garlic and aniseed. You can try to see if what I said makes sense, but remember that it is a small amount, and too much will be counterproductive)

four

When you are ready, put the crabs in the steamer. Fresh crabs are so fragile now that you can't help sighing that life is impermanent. Let's just say that it is the ecological balance of nature and the delicious food in people's mouths.

five

After the crabs in the steamer are steamed on medium heat, steam on low heat for 5 minutes, then turn off the heat and let stand for 5- 10 minutes to taste delicious. Do not steam for too long. For too long, crab meat will lose its real delicacy after losing water. See if this crab has a good appetite.

six

Open a crab for everyone to see. There is crab roe and crab meat is full. Although this crab is not the largest, its meat is fresh and tender, and its mouth is fragrant. It's really the top grade in food!

Matters needing attention

Taking the simplest cooking method as the goal, bringing the healthiest nutrition to everyone and reserving more is the principle of food production that I have always followed.

Different people have different opinions. Personally, I think that ginger, garlic, pepper and star anise are good seasonings, but if they are put into crabs, they will destroy the unique taste of crabs. Everyone may have different tastes, but it doesn't hurt to try. You should have the spirit of being the first to eat crabs!

Crab is rich in protein and trace elements, which has nourishing effect; But it is a cold food, and people with spleen and stomach deficiency are not easy to overeat; It's not easy to eat persimmons, and now it's also the season when persimmons are on the market. It is not easy to eat with tea.

Special reminder here: pregnant women should remember not to eat crabs easily, otherwise it will be harmful to the fetus. This is a doctor's advice and an old saying handed down by the old man.

When eating crabs, you can add ginger vinegar juice, which will taste more special and taste healthier. Everyone can follow his own taste. Although crabs are beautiful, they are not greedy.
