How to eat fortune crab

Many people are now familiar with fortune crabs, and there are many videos of eating fortune crabs raw on the Internet. Therefore, many people believe that fortune crabs can be eaten raw. Actually, it’s not. There are many ways to eat fortune crabs, but eating them raw is not the best way. Moreover, if there are many parasites in the fortune crabs, problems can easily arise. So, how do you eat fortune crab?

practice

1. Wash the crabs/shrimp and put them in a container

2. Pour salt, soy sauce, a little vinegar, a little cooking wine, add onion (cut into sections), coriander (cut into sections), ginger (sliced)

3. Add more salt and soy sauce. But don't make it too salty, just add it all at once.

4. Mix well, then put it in the refrigerator and you can eat it the next day!

5. Crabs, shrimps, and prawns can all be pickled. Sugar is used to enhance the flavor, so don't use too much~

If the crab is relatively large, you need to cut it into pieces before pickling it, so that it will be more flavorful. My hometown is Dalian, and I usually buy flower crabs to pickle. The flower crabs in October are the fattest. Although they are small, they taste much better than big crabs. River crabs can also be pickled.

Wash the crab roe and put it in a large basin. If you have a jar at home, that would be the best. Pour a pound of high-proof liquor on the crab to make it drunk. This can kill bacteria and remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor. After a few minutes, pour out the liquor and freeze the crab in the refrigerator for 6-7 hours, until it is completely frozen. This is to separate the crab shell and meat so that they don't stick to the shell. 3. Here comes the most critical step. Use one pound of cold boiled water and four ounces of salt to make a nearly saturated salty brine (don't be stingy with your salt). Take out the crabs from the refrigerator and soak them completely in the salt water. If they float up, press them down with something. Marinate them for about 15-20 hours. (The longer it is marinated, the saltier it is; it depends on personal taste) Page 2/3 4. Take out the marinated crab roe, drain the water, and cut into small pieces (cut as many as you want to eat, and wrap the leftovers in plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator. Take them out when you want to eat them, and they can be kept for several months) add sugar, vinegar, ginger, minced garlic, pepper, and Shaoxing wine. The delicious stir-fried crab is ready to be served.
