Can crabs be cooked and eaten?
Question 2: Can crabs be cooked and eaten? Yes, my family often does it, and there is nothing wrong with it.
Remember to adopt
Question 3: Are the hairy crabs boiled or steamed? This autumn, eating hairy crabs has become a national fashion, and all kinds of articles about eating crabs are flying all over the sky, but whether crabs are boiled or steamed is meaningless. There are two schools in Shanghai at present. One school thinks that boiled crabs are delicious, while the other thinks that boiled crabs are good. However, people in Yangcheng Lake, Suzhou all agree that steaming crabs is an authentic practice. In all kinds of crab programs, it is specially indicated that the crab belly should be steamed in the air, so that the crab oil will not be lost, and the taste of the crab will not be diluted by water, and the original flavor will be maintained. The traditional boiled crab school in Shanghai thinks that boiled crabs taste fresher and have tender meat, because you can put some ginger, onion, cooking wine and even a little salt in the water. Now some people put beer in it, so that the fishy smell can be removed and the crab meat is dry. As far as I'm concerned, neither method is right. If it is right, it means that both sides make sense. If it is wrong, it means that we don't understand the origin of these two methods. Please listen to my joke and see if it makes sense.
To illustrate the problem, let's give a side example. We always think that the sharp bud leaves of tea trees are good tea, but when we ask tea farmers what to drink in tea-producing areas, the answer is tea stems, because coarse tea can quench thirst and tender leaves can fetch a good price. The same is true for the cooking of hairy crabs. In the past, Shanghainese began to eat crabs when the autumn wind started and their feet itched. At this time, the crab has grown up. Shanghai describes useless people as "soft-footed crabs", which means that crabs with hard shells are worthless goods. As we all know, the old crab is an old guy with a strong smell. Therefore, authentic Shanghainese boil crabs, and the water is relatively large, which has covered the crabs. Boiling them is also called "brake" in Shanghai dialect, which is also one of the sources of the name of hairy crabs. In the crab producing area, there are often some soft-footed crabs that can't meet the listing standards, and unfortunately need to be rescued in the intensive care unit. These crabs can't walk away, so they are called "leg-supporting crabs". Due to limited medical conditions, it can only be "imported". Originally, the watered crabs were boiled in water, which was too watery and could only be eaten by steaming. There are many such crabs, and finally they become a habit. It is a good practice to steam the chicken and cook the old hen. The key is the object.
Next, let's talk about how to eat hairy crabs. On the premise of eating while it is hot, there are still some differences among crab divers. One view is that crab feet are easy to get cold, so eat crab feet first and then eat crab belly. Another view is to eat crab belly before eating feet. This is the same as eating grapes. Choose grapes first or eat bad grapes first, depending on your personality. I'll choose a good eating style first, and I can teach you the experience of eating more and taking more. I don't eat any crab feet at the dinner table. I'll eat crab bellies first, and ask someone to take the meat out or take it home. I'll order crab powder to cook tofu, and add some shallots before serving. Full of color, smell and taste. In fact, crab roe is fishy when it is cold, and it will give full play to the fishy smell after re-burning. Therefore, the whole crab tofu is not as delicious as crab foot tofu, but it is very enjoyable when it is fresh. This method can eat as much as it is hot.
Eating crabs was originally a hobby of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai people, but now it is found all over the country.
When friends come to Shanghai, what they expect most is to eat crabs. This was unimaginable in the past, especially for friends in the north, who felt that eating that thing was "annoying" and might as well eat big fish and big meat. Eating shark fin or abalone is more dignified and convenient. What depressed at that time was why the best beauty X was unpopular, but now it is the opposite. This phenomenon can only be explained by one fact, that is, driven by real money, everything that is out of season can be produced, because our technology is powerful, and at present only hairy crabs can't be produced all year round, but everyone knows that it is coming soon, so we should hurry up. Although Yangcheng Lake is full of "bathing crabs", good or bad is also a scarce "time-limited" food, before scientists can popularize science. I guess, scientists in the food field in China probably have the same status as trade unions in the United States, and the name of people's livelihood is actually the interests of small groups. It seems that the eyes of the whole country are discerning, so let's take the time to eat hairy crabs and leave the rest alone.
Technology is better to stay away from food. The purpose of human life is not technology, at least food.
Question 4: Is boiled crab water drinkable? The hairy crabs themselves taste delicious, and the boiled water looks quite fresh. Is the water after boiling hairy crabs drinkable?
If you buy crabs in specialty stores, such as Gucheng Lake crabs, they are all kept in crab tanks, and with filtration, hairy crabs are cleaner. After cooking at home, the soup is still clean. If you really want to drink it, you can try it. It will smell fishy. You can add other seasonings or side dishes to see if you are interested.
However, if it is bought from the market or just salvaged from the lake, it is not recommended to try. Crab itself is not very clean, and after cooking, the dirty things in hairy crabs may be steamed out and discharged into the soup in the pot. If you drink it again, it will definitely be unsanitary.
The delicacy of hairy crabs has always been mainly kept in the inside of hairy crabs, so crab soup gave up decisively. So as not to affect your health.
If it is a river crab, I suggest you steam or boil it. Wash the crab first, especially the hair on the pliers, because there is a lot of sediment in it. Grab the back cover and brush it clean. Then tie it with a rope. Put it in a steamer, belly up, to prevent nutrient loss. Generally, the steaming time is 8~~ 10 minutes (calculated after the water is boiled), the small one is 8 minutes, and the large one is 10 minutes. The most famous Wang Baohe in Shanghai is boiled in water. After washing crabs, put them in cold water without binding, and then cook them on high fire for 8 minutes. Finally, pour a glass of beer and boil it. There are three things in the crab that can't be eaten. One is the stomach, a triangular thing near the mouth in the crab bucket, which is full of sediment. The second is the gills. After opening the crab cover, the white layer on the body is soft, and the third layer is the umbilical cord, which is the tail. There are black intestines in it, so it is advisable to throw them away. Everything else is delicious, especially female paste and male paste.
Question 5: How long does it take to cook hairy crabs before they can be eaten? How? For 20 minutes, first put a proper amount of water in the pot and add a certain amount of ginger to remove the fishy smell. If there is a steamer, put the hairy crabs in the steamer, and remember that the hairy crabs must be put upside down. Cook for 20 minutes. When the crab meat is cooked, it may kill the bacteria on it. You can eat it safely. I saw it in the instruction manual of Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs in Liu Aquatic Products;
Question 6: Is it better to eat crabs steamed or boiled? Of course, it must be steamed!
How can you cook it? If you cook it, you will boil all the umami inside the crab, and it will be in the water!
You can't be any crab. It's too rough and will spoil the food!
If it is a sea crab, it can be steamed or chopped and fried, depending on your taste!
It's delicious to steam it if it's fresh.
-If it takes a little time to transport it from the seaside, fry it. Remember to put some ginger and onion when frying. If the seasoning is salt, add a little soy sauce and some sugar. You can even skip monosodium glutamate or chicken essence.
How to eat crabs: crabs can be eaten raw, but it is not easy to eat them raw if they are marinated with spices such as wine for several days. In case the crab is not fresh, it is no joke. Cooked crabs can be fried, steamed and boiled. Frying is more troublesome, and most people steam or cook it.
Wash crabs: No matter how you cook them, you should wash them first. You can soak crabs in the sink for a while. Then use a brush (you can use an old toothbrush) to brush off the sediment on the crab. Be careful not to be bitten by crabs!
Steaming/boiling crabs: After the crabs are washed, they can be steamed/boiled. Boil the water first, then put the crab in the pot.
Mixing juice: When steaming/boiling crabs, you can mix juice to dip crabs. Find a fresh piece of ginger first. Wash ginger and cut into filaments. Put ginger in a bowl, then pour some vinegar into the bowl (Zhenjiang balsamic vinegar is the best) and add some sugar. Mix the juice evenly with chopsticks/spoon, and it will be fine.
Question 7: How to heat the crabs steamed at noon that day at night? How to preserve cooked crabs? Everyone knows that dead crabs will be poisoned if eaten, so many people are used to cooking the crabs they bought once before storing them. But do you know that cooked crabs are also in danger of food poisoning if they are not stored properly? Let me introduce you to several correct ways to preserve cooked crabs.
Methods/steps
Method one
If you don't finish eating that night, you can wrap it in plastic wrap, put it in the refrigerator after cooling, and freeze it if you can. But the cooked crabs in the refrigerator should not exceed noon the next day at the latest. Remember to cook them again when you eat them again. You'd better put some Jiang Mo when eating, which is good for sterilization. Eating crabs in this way can not only ensure delicious food, but also give consideration to safety.
Method 2
If you want to eat pickled cooked crabs, try to steam them back to the pot before eating, but cover them in the frozen (non-refrigerated) layer of the refrigerator, because cooked crabs are toxic after contact with fog and dew. And be sure to cook it again the next day, put it in boiling water, and heat it for half an hour after boiling to prevent the microorganisms in the crab from being completely killed. Avoid eating crabs without seasoning, because they are cold. When eating crabs, add Jiang Mo and vinegar to prevent stomach injury. But if it is broken, it is better to throw it away. Although it is wasteful, health is more important.
Method 3
If you keep the cooked crabs for a short time, you can cover them with plastic wrap and put them in a cool and ventilated place. Generally, it can be kept fresh for 6-8 hours, provided that it is cold and the temperature is low. If the weather is hot, if you want to keep the cooked crabs for a short time, you should put them in the refrigerator. In this way, crabs at noon can be kept until evening, but they can't stay overnight. If you want to store boiled crabs for a long time, such as overnight, you should put them in the freezer. However, direct freezing is easy to make boiled crabs lose water and become very dry and unpalatable. When frozen, it can be frozen with the soup of boiled crabs, which can keep the crabs delicious.

In order to avoid the consequences of eating dead crabs, some people will steam all the crabs they bought home at once and then put them in the refrigerator for preservation, thinking that there will be no problem. Is it true?/You don't say. /You don't say. Can cooked crabs be eaten overnight? The answer is: boiled river crabs can be eaten overnight, but it doesn't mean that they are kept in the refrigerator and in the safe. Cooked crabs that have been stored for too long are still easy to be poisoned. The principle is also histidine mentioned above. In the crabs left over overnight, histidine will be decomposed into histamine under the action of some microorganisms. Although heating in the pot can kill pathogenic microorganisms, it cannot destroy toxins. Therefore, eating cooked river crabs stored for a long time may also lead to histamine poisoning.
