Autumn is the best time for people to taste crabs. Crab is a precious aquatic product with tender meat and delicious taste. Crabs are also very nutritious. The content of protein is several times higher than that of pork and fish, and the content of calcium, phosphorus, iron and vitamin A is also high. Autumn crabs are delicious and nutritious, but if eaten improperly, they may cause health damage.
Eating dead crabs may be toxic: when crabs are dying or dying, the oxygenated acids in crabs will decompose to produce histamine. Histamine is a toxic substance. With the extension of death time, more and more histamine is accumulated in crabs, and more and more toxic gases are produced. Even if the crab is cooked, this toxin is not easy to be destroyed. So, never eat dead crabs.
When buying fresh crabs, you should do "five things" when choosing crabs:
Look at the color; Second, look at the individual; Third, look at the navel; Fourth, look at crab hair; Fifth, look at the action. The color of crab should be green back and white belly, golden claws and yellow hair; Individuals should be big, old and healthy; The navel should protrude outward; Crab feet should be hairy; Stay agile and active. Only those who meet these five conditions can buy it.
