It is recommended to cook as soon as possible after receiving the gift box of hairy crabs. Hairy crabs cannot be stored in the gift box for a long time. Hairy crabs are fresh aquatic products, and their storage time is short after leaving water. After receiving the gift box of hairy crabs, you should first open the gift box and take them out, one by one, and put them on the tray, then take a wet towel to cover the back of the hairy crabs, put the tray in the fresh-keeping layer of the refrigerator and store them at low temperature.

In low temperature environment, hairy crabs will temporarily enter a state similar to hibernation, while wet towels can provide water for survival, so hairy crabs can be preserved for a longer time.
