1, put it in the fresh-keeping room of the refrigerator. When buying hairy crabs, merchants usually tie the crab legs with ropes. When we go home, we don't have to untie them. Putting them directly in the refrigerator can also avoid the crab's struggle and reduce the crab's physical consumption.

After putting the crab in the refrigerator, we can just put a wet towel on the crab. This method can be kept within 3 days, so eat the less lively ones first.

2. Put it in a basin and save it. Prepare a slightly higher and larger basin to prevent hairy crabs from running out. Put the hairy crabs flat in it, and be careful not to stack them.

Then start adding water into it. The amount of water is about half of the crab's height. Don't put too much water, otherwise the crab can't breathe and die soon. Then just put the basin in a ventilated and cool place and keep it. This method has been relatively new for 5 days.

Method of selecting hairy crabs

Look at the crab shell.

All the shells are dark green with light, which are thick and strong; The back of the shell is yellow, mostly thin.

Second, look at the navel.

Those whose navel protrudes are generally full of fat and fat; Most of the dents are short of fat.

Third, look at the claws.

All the hairy feet are old and healthy; However, if the pincers have no fluff, they will be weak.

Fourth, look at vitality.

If the crab is turned over with its abdomen facing the sky, it can be quickly turned back with a stinger, which has strong vitality and can be preserved; Those that cannot be turned back have poor vitality and cannot be stored for a long time.
