1, first prepare half a basin of water and an old toothbrush.
2, put the crab to be cleaned, don't worry that the crab will run around, it will get into the water. A few crabs will run out, just catch it or drive it into the water, and it will be quiet for a while. Soak for about ten minutes and you can clean it.
3. Grab both sides of the crab and wash the back, abdomen and mouth with a toothbrush.
4. Then clean the sides of the crab and the roots of the feet and pliers.
5. This is the most crucial step. You can't do it if you are timid. Grasp the pliers (use the toothbrush handle to lift the joints of the pliers from bottom to top, and use the thumb and forefinger of the crab to grasp the crab pliers along the root of the pliers. Individual fierce crabs can first press the pliers down a few times or knock a few times) to open the abdominal cover and squeeze out the excrement from the inside out in the middle.
6. Clean the dirt and crab pliers in the belly cover of the crab, so that the crab is cleaned.
7. Put the washed crabs into a pot with a half pot of clear water. (If the water is not drained, the crabs will run around.) After washing them all, soak them in clear water for about ten minutes before washing them, in order to clean the dirty water brought in when washing crabs.
Anyway, it's easy to eat clean crabs.
The second way to wash crabs:
If you are afraid that crabs will pinch your hands, prepare a pot of hot water with a temperature of about 45 degrees, that is, your hands will not feel hot when you put them in the water (the feet of crabs will fall off if they are too hot). Put the crab belly up into the water one by one, and when it turns over, it will have drunk hot water and fainted. The advantage of this is that the crab just fainted, and it won't pinch your fingers at your mercy, and it won't affect the delicacy of the crab. Then follow the cleaning steps.
1, if you eat it steamed, you don't have to tie the crab. Just put the crab belly up in the steamer. But personally, I think steamed crabs taste dry, not delicious and have some fishy smell.
2, if you are cooking, you are not afraid of crabs. Add some salt (you can add more), onion and ginger when boiling crabs, and then add some cooking wine after boiling. Cooking wine and onion can remove the fishy smell and enhance the fragrance, ginger can detoxify and enhance the freshness, and salt can make crab meat tasty. The soup for boiling crabs can be sliced or boiled.
3. If you burn it, you can chop the crab directly on the chopping block. Then put the cut of the crab on the powder of 2: 1 starch and dry flour to prevent the crab juice from losing, then put it in a pot and fry it in oil, and then add seasonings and spices to burn it. However, I personally think that this way of eating hairy crabs (such as spicy crabs) is not as delicious as crabs, and may not be suitable for Jiangnan people's tastes.
In short, no matter what kind of cooking and eating, as long as it suits your taste. Eating crabs means eating in an atmosphere and mood. You can't eat when you are full. I wish you all a healthy and happy crab!
The third way to wash crabs:
1. First, pour a small amount of white wine into the bucket where the crabs are placed to remove the fishy smell, just the right amount.
2. When the crabs are slightly comatose, smoke them hard, and it is best to use the back of the spatula until they are stunned.
3, this time is the best opportunity to start, quickly grab its back with your hands and lift the crab to a level position with your chin. This position has the best perspective.
4. Temporarily put down the spatula, pick up the brush and brush it toward the flat crab abdomen.
5. When brushing, you shouldn't think about brushing a crab, but you should imagine brushing leather shoes, and don't miss every corner.
6. After checking that there is no silt, throw it into another bucket and wake them up with clear water.
The fourth way to wash crabs:
1, first prepare a pot of warm water at about 45℃, that is, just put your hands in the water and don't feel hot (the crab's feet will fall off if they are too hot). Put the crab belly up into the water one by one, wait for it to turn over, and when it comes over, it will have drunk hot water and fainted. The advantage of this is that the crab just fainted, and it won't pinch your fingers at your mercy, and it won't affect the delicacy of the crab.
2. Take out a toothbrush, grab both sides of the crab and wash the back, abdomen and mouth with a toothbrush.
3. Then clean the sides of the crab and the roots of the feet and pliers.
4, the next step is the most critical, grab the double pliers (use the toothbrush handle to pick up the joints of the double pliers from bottom to top, and use the thumb and forefinger of the crab to grab the crab pliers along the root of the pliers. Individual fierce crabs can first press the pliers down a few times or knock a few times) to open the abdominal cover and squeeze out the excrement from the inside out in the middle.
5. Finally, clean the dirt and crab pliers in the belly cover of the crab, so that the crab is cleaned.
