The dinner table to determine whether a hairy crab is authentic, a look at the outer color, crab shell red, crab belly white, especially that white, is really different. Second look at the water, a crab open crab shell, if all the water, commonly known as "a shell of water", that is crappy crab. Authentic hairy crabs open crab shells - drip!
The first procedure for eating crab is to identify male and female. White belly up, the crab umbilicus was semicircular type called "group umbilicus", for female crabs; "pointed umbilicus" is the male crab. Male crab pointed umbilicus broken down and discarded, and female crab umbilicus is the content of the group, but not chewing and swallowing. Why? Some people say that the crab is no intestine princess, in fact, wrong! The crab's first intestines in the umbilical cord in the center, break open the female crab's umbilical cord, visible in the middle, should be eliminated.
The second procedure is to break open the crab shell. The crab shell is rich in content, but the good and the bad are all over the place. First of all, we need to find out the crab stomach, located in the top of the crab shell, is a triangular-shaped sac, wrapped in crab roe and so on, easy to accidentally eat, accidentally eat is the same as eating a bag of mud. Some accidental eaters will also say, "Why is this crab a little bitter? It is laughable. Crab in the stomach there is a "Fa Hai" - a monk playing the seat, the head is also hot "incense hole", very realistic and fun.
Eating "crab weight" also have a few pieces to clear, one of which is the gills of the crab, distributed on both sides of the crab weight, shaped like eyebrows, like a sponge; the second is the heart of the crab, is located in the middle of the crab weight, grayish-white, six horns, a thin piece of the Suzhou people called "hexagonal meat! ", this thing is the most cold. Take a sharp crab foot right in the middle of the stab down, poke through the crab coat, pick out is. Crab weight there is a can not eat, many people have neglected, that is, the second intestines of the crab, the crab weight a break for two, the center of a thin tube is, every time you see the tube with black matter, mud also!
How to eat crab weight? Suzhou has "eight pieces of crab" - hammer, scissors and so on, I think it is redundant, "eight pieces of crab" can be used as handicrafts, daily crab basically do not use. The key to eating crab is to see how to bite, to bite accurately to understand the growth structure of the crab, crab is horizontal compartmentalized structure, crab meat is long between the ribs on both sides, therefore, if the vertical bite, it is bound to chew a piece of meat and bone. Must bite horizontally, a layer of ribs a layer of meat, you can see clearly, eat clean.
Finally eat crab feet, a foot has three sections, generally eat two sections, each section of the upper end of the bite and the lower end, commonly known as the "open tube", with the tip of the crab foot from the bottom up gently a top, you can eat to a complete crab foot meat. When I was a child eating crab, parents always put crab paste ah, yellow ah to the children to eat, and the children will peel out the crab legs meat, accumulated full of a crab bucket to honor their parents. Last year, I saw a crab-eating master, his skill is to eat crab to eat to the tip of the crab feet, the tip of the crab feet actually also sucked out a thin strip of meat it! I've tried and failed, but I still have to learn, the so-called "mountain outside the mountain, building outside the building" ah!
Eating crab is a lot of attention to detail, after eating the crab, must be eaten in a mess of crab bones gathered, with the crab shell a cover, to show that the food is finished. At this time, to a cup of sugar ginger soup is best, this soup is best to use sugar, ginger boiled, drive away the cold, warm stomach.
