In contrast, fried stone crabs may cause crab meat to be too dry and lose its tender taste. In addition, the shell of stone crab is brittle, and the frying process is easy to destroy the shell of crab, which affects the overall texture of crab meat.
So in general, steaming stone crab is the best way to keep its delicious taste. Of course, personal tastes may be different. If you prefer the taste of frying, you can try it, but you should carefully control the frying time and temperature to avoid over-treatment.
