Material preparation:
1. Crab: Choose fresh crabs to ensure their vitality.
2. String: Choose a string with soft texture and good toughness, which is convenient to bind and does little harm to crabs.
3. Gloves: Protect your hands from being pinched.
Steps:
1. Crab catching: Catch the crab gently first to avoid being caught by the crab pliers. Hold the crab's back shell with the palm of your hand so that its abdomen is up.
2. Tie the crab's feet: pass the string through the crab's feet and then cross-tie them. Make sure that each crab's feet are firmly fixed, but avoid being too tight to avoid hurting crabs. Binding can be repeated many times to ensure fixation and stability.
3. Fix the crab claws: If the crab claws are too big or too active, you can wrap the crab claws with kitchen paper first, and then tie them with a string. This can reduce the range of motion of the crab pliers and avoid pinching people.
4. Abdominal binding: pass the string through the abdomen and tie a knot on the back shell. This can ensure that crabs don't climb in the bag.
5. Fixing the rear shell: finally, fix the rear shell with a string to prevent it from turning over or being damaged. Be sure to tie it firmly enough, but not too tightly to avoid hurting the crab.
Precautions for tying crabs:
1. Crab vitality: Crab vitality is the most important consideration in the process of crab binding. Be sure to choose fresh crabs and be full of vitality. If the crab has lost its vitality or is on the verge of death, the binding process may cause harm to it, which should be avoided.
2, the choice of string: choose a string with soft texture and good toughness, which is easy to bind and less harmful to crabs. Avoid using thick ropes or nylon ropes, as they may cut crabs.
3. Binding strength: In the binding process, the strength should be moderate. Make sure that each crab's feet are firmly fixed, but avoid being too tight to avoid hurting crabs. Similarly, the strength of fixing the rear shell should be moderate to avoid being too tight or too loose.
4. Avoid clamping: During the process of catching crabs, pay attention to avoid being clamped by crab pliers. You can wear gloves to protect your hands, and at the same time gently wrap the crab claws with paper towels or other items to reduce their range of activities and avoid hurting people.
5. Keep fresh: After handling crabs, put them in the refrigerator or cook them immediately to keep their fresh taste. Leaving tied crabs for a long time or exposing them for a long time may affect their freshness.
