Why does it have to be put in the refrigerator? Since it is alive, if it is refrigerated or frozen in the refrigerator, won't it become a "dead crab" the next day?
According to the truth, if you eat crabs at home, you will be alive on the first day and dead when you eat them the second time, and this influence is very small. But if it is true, live crabs are definitely much more delicious than dead crabs. In the quick-frozen industry, there is a * * * knowledge, that is, if seafood products can be frozen instantly, its freshness is the greatest. Generally, the temperature used for quick freezing is below MINUS 18℃. Although the temperature in the refrigerator can reach this level, the speed of quick freezing is definitely not as fast as others.
as to whether to refrigerate or freeze, the best temperature for storing frozen goods in a general household refrigerator is -18℃, and the most suitable temperature for a freezer is about 5℃. Although crabs can survive at around ℃ in theory, personally, it is really unnecessary to put them in the refrigerator.
since it's the next day, why not find a bucket, put less water in it and keep them for a day? Moreover, many crabs still have dirty things in their stomachs. After a day of feeding, crabs will excrete some and eat cleaner. The most important thing is that no matter where crabs are stored, they are definitely fresher alive than dead.
When buying crabs, if we look closely, we will find that the lively crabs are all raised in water, and then those who are half dead or dead will be stored in the freezer or freezer. The main reason is to extend the shelf life of dead crabs. Therefore, if you eat crabs at home, if crabs are alive and kicking, just find a bucket to raise them for one day and eat fresh hairy crabs the next day. This is called seafood.
In addition, expand a little knowledge. When washing crabs, it is best to wash them with a brush. Many crabs are covered with dirty things, and they cannot be cleaned without a brush. Like the crab's back, abdomen and mouth, it is the dirtiest, so it is best to brush it several times.
