Both live and cooked sea crabs can be stored in the freezer, because the frozen layer of the refrigerator has a low temperature, and there are almost no bacteria and other microorganisms in the sea crabs at MINUS ten degrees, which can inhibit the activities of fungi and parasites in the crabs.

Delaying the degradation of protein can better keep the freshness of sea crabs. Frozen sea crabs can continue to be eaten after thawing, with little change in nutrients and taste, and the meat is still delicious and tender, so they can be safely eaten.

Frozen storage time

1, live crab: 1-3 months.

Live crabs can be stored in the freezer according to the above method. If the temperature remains unchanged, there is no power failure or thawing in the middle, they can remain unchanged for 3 months. However, for the sake of tenderness and nutrition, it is best to eat it within one month.

2, cooked crabs: 15 days is appropriate.

If it's steamed crab, it's best to eat it as soon as possible, otherwise protein and other nutrients will be lost and the meat taste will change. Generally, the freezing time does not exceed 15 days.
