Prepare ingredients:

Crab, pepper, garlic, ginger, yellow wine, aged vinegar.

Step one:

Tie the crab first, which will be convenient for cleaning and won't cut your hand by the crab. You can also fix the crab legs and let them stay honest and not run around. I remember the first time I steamed crabs, I counted five when I put them in the pot, and I saw four when I steamed them. I don't know when one ran away.

Step 2: Clean

Crabs are soaked in clear water for 40 minutes to an hour, and then scrubbed with a small brush, especially in the abdomen, where dirt is easy to stick.

Step 3:

Put cold water in the pot, add a little water, put some pepper, put some ginger slices on the steamer, pour the crab upside down on the ginger slices (this is very important), then pour some yellow wine on the crab, cover the pot and steam for about 20 minutes.

Step 4: Serve and eat.

When the crab is steamed, let's untie the crab and untie the rope. Mix with a bowl of garlic vinegar. It's not very delicious It is really delicious.

Tips:

1, when steaming crabs, put cold water in the pot.

The crabs steamed in cold water are full of fragrance and tender meat. If steamed with hot water, the fishy smell inside will not come out, it tastes too fishy, and crab roe will easily flow out.

2. The crab's belly should face up.

Many of us usually make this mistake, and the consequence is that a lot of crab roe will flow out. If the crab's stomach is up, it can effectively prevent crab roe from flowing out and reduce losses. After all, crab roe is the soul and the most nutritious.

3. The main purpose of pouring yellow wine is to deodorize, and cooking wine can be used instead of yellow wine.

The crabs steamed in this way are complete, tender and delicious, have no fishy smell and will not escape. They must be used to entertain guests.
