1, first prepare half a basin of water and an old toothbrush.
2, put in the crabs to be cleaned, don't worry about the crabs will run around, it will burrow into the water. There are individual crabs will run out, catch it or drive it into the water on the line, a moment will be quiet. Soak for about ten minutes and then you can clean it.
3. Grab both sides of the crab and use a toothbrush to clean the back, belly and mouth.
4. Then clean the sides of the crab and the roots of the feet and pincers.
5, here is the most critical step, the guts can not be small. Grab the double pincers (use the toothbrush handle to pick up the joints of the double pincers from the bottom upward, and use the thumb and forefinger of the crab to grab the pincers along the root of the pincers upward and forcefully grab the crab pincers. Individual aggressive crabs can be started by pressing down on the pincers a few times or tapping them a few times) Open the abdominal lid and squeeze out the feces from the inside out in the center.
6, clean the crab's abdominal cover inside the dirt and crab pincers, so the crab is considered to be cleaned.
7, will be cleaned to complete the crab into a pot of water in the pot, (do not put the water if the crab will be running around) all washed and filled with water soak for about ten minutes and then rinse, the purpose is to wash off the wash when the crab brought into the dirty water.
How about it, it is quite easy to eat clean crabs.
The second way to wash crabs:
If you are afraid that the crabs will pinch your hand, prepare a pot of hot water at about 45 degrees, that is, put your hand in the water and don't feel hot (too hot, the crab's feet will come off). Put the crabs into the water one by one with their stomachs facing upwards, and when it turns over, it will have already drank the hot water and choked. The advantage of doing this is that the crab just fainted, at your disposal will not pinch your fingers, and will not affect the freshness of the crab. Then follow the cleaning steps through the line.
1, if you are steamed eat also do not need to tie the crab. Just put the crab belly up into the steamer. But I personally think that the steamed crab tastes like dry crab meat and some fishy flavor.
2. If you're cooking, you can't be afraid to put the crab on top of the pot. Cooking crab into some salt (can put more), green onions, ginger, boiled and then put some wine, wine and green onions can remove the fishy flavor and aroma, ginger can detoxification and freshness, salt can make the crab meat flavor. The soup in which the crab is boiled can be put under noodles or boiled in soup.
3, if you are burned to eat you can put the crab directly on the cutting board to split. Then put the cut of the crab on 2:1 starch and dry flour powder to prevent the loss of crab juice, and then put it into the pot with oil to fry a little bit, and then put in seasonings and spices to burn. But I personally think hairy crab this way of eating (such as spicy crab) has no fresh flavor of crab, may not be very suitable for the taste of Jiangnan people.
All in all, no matter what kind of burning method and eating method, as long as it suits your taste. Eating crab is to eat an atmosphere and mood can not be when full to eat. I wish you all crabs eat both health and healthy and happy mood!
