Steamed crabs need to be boiled and steamed for a few minutes.
Boiled crabs are steamed 12- 15 minutes.

Ingredients: crab, ginger, pepper.

Specific practices:

1. When buying crabs, be sure to buy them alive and kicking. Don't buy dead crabs cheaply, because for seafood, bacteria multiply very fast. Everyone must remember this, and would rather not eat or buy dead crabs. Brush crabs with a toothbrush.

2, add water to the steamer, sprinkle some ginger slices on the steamer, and then sprinkle some peppers (be careful not to let the peppers leak), both of which are used for crabs.

3. Put the crab bellies up one by one. The reason why we let them up is to prevent the crab roe from flowing out. Many people have done this wrong, so you must pay attention to steaming crabs next time.

4. Then you can have some ginger slices, put them on the crab's stomach, cover the pot, and continue steaming after the water boils until the crab is cooked.

5, the crab is steamed, hurry to eat! Live crabs will lose their legs after steaming, but dead crabs will not.

Matters needing attention

1. Choosing crabs is actually very simple. Look at the position of the crab's navel. Yellow and red crabs are good crabs. Generally speaking, it can't be wrong, just like the picture 1 in the menu.

2. Again, crabs must be bought alive.

The steaming time depends on the size of the crab. Generally, the parasitic bacteria in crabs can be killed by steaming 12- 15 minutes after boiling, but if the crabs are more than four and a half minutes, it needs to be steamed for three or four minutes. It is necessary to ensure the delicacy of crabs and the cleanliness and hygiene of crabs.
