Male and female crabs are actually both delicious.
The female crab has more crab yolk, and it is better to eat it before the tenth month of the lunar calendar. After the tenth month, the crab yolk grows into crab roe and is discharged, so the meat of the female crab is not as good as that of the male crab, and at this time the crab paste of the male crab is more than that of the female crab, and it tastes sweet and fluffy and the biggest characteristic is that it does not harden after being cooked, and it tastes smooth and refreshing.
The difference between female and male crabs:
1, the size of the head is different: male crabs are bigger than female crabs.
2, navels are different: the navel of the female crab is rounded and semicircular, the navel of the male crab is narrow and there is a tip of the male crab navel into a triangle. Usually there is more yellow in the belly of the female crab and more crab paste in the belly of the male crab.
3, legs on the velvet is different: male crab legs on the velvet more, female crab legs are smooth.
