1, sealed and frozen
Before freezing, it is necessary to wrap the cooked crabs with thick plastic wrap or put on several clean plastic bags. This can prevent crabs from losing water during storage.
2, ice preservation
Use a container that can hold crabs and put some water in it. Clear water can't pass the crab, then put it in the freezer for preservation. This ice storage method can better ensure the freshness of crabs.
3, cool and ventilated preservation
Cool the freshly cooked crabs and put them in a cool and ventilated place, so that the pickled crabs are freshest. However, this method is only suitable for winter use and should not be stored for more than one day.
Precautions for preserving crabs
1. Crabs are best eaten on the same day. No matter whether it is properly preserved or not, crabs will lose their taste and some nutrients after staying overnight, which is not delicious or cost-effective.
2. When crabs are stored, you can add a little pepper to the bag. The smell of pepper can effectively repel insects and greatly reduce the possibility of decay.
3. When storing crabs, try to seal them with fresh-keeping boxes or bags to prevent crabs from being drained by refrigerators or infected by external bacteria. This step is the key to long-term storage. Of course, it is recommended to eat it once every other day in the refrigerator and put it in the freezer for 2 to 3 days, but it is also recommended to eat it as soon as possible, otherwise the protein absorption rate will be destroyed due to long-term freezing.
