The nutritional value of hairy crabs is relatively high, and their value is also relatively high. We usually eat hairy crabs during festivals, so when cooking hairy crabs, we should know how to process them. When processing hairy crabs, you should break the crab apart, clean the black stuff at the bottom of the crab, remove the internal organs of the crab, and then add ginger and other ingredients to cook it. How to kill crabs quickly? 1. Use chopsticks to poke directly between the crab's eyes and turn it slightly outwards, so that the crab appears to be in a state of suspended animation, but the meat still retains its delicious and chewy texture as when it was fresh. 2. The left and right edges of the crab are its most vulnerable and soft parts. You can use the edge of the table to gain leverage to peel off the crab's shell. 3. After peeling off the shell, clean the food gall stuck to the center of the shell. Tips for cleaning crab stomach viscera! (1) Soak in salt water When you buy live crabs, you should first rinse the dirt off the surface of the crabs with clean water, and then soak them in light salt water for a period of time. This will allow the crabs to vomit out the dirt in their stomachs. During the soaking period, you should pay attention to changing the water frequently until the water vomited by the crabs is clean. Then pinch its back with your hands, and suspend it in the air close to the edge of the reel so that the pliers can just clamp the reel strings. (2) Soaking in white wine Let the crabs soak in the wine for 5-10 minutes to give them a thorough bath. The waste in the body can be excreted through the stimulation of alcohol, and the crabs can also be made drunk by white wine. The wine can not only remove the fishy smell of the crab, but also make the crab stop struggling, making it easier to handle later. Of course, if you don’t have white wine at home, you can scald it with 45-degree warm water. When the water temperature is high, the crab's legs and claws will fall off. People who have cooked crabs before will be aware of this. This will also prevent the crabs from being scalded to death and affecting their nutrition and taste. Put the crabs in warm water for about 3-5 minutes until they stop moving.
