steamingprocessofthe(squid crab)


1 First, you need to carefully separate the crab cover from one side using a technique; hold the cover with one hand and press on the crab's legs with the other, then apply force from one side.2 Use scissors to poke inside the crab's digestive tract for its death; next, remove the lung part of the crab, rinse it under clean water to wash away any mud or sand, and finally remove the rubber bands on the claws (which are used to prevent the live crab from injuring people when steaming).3 Place the cleaned crabs with their covers down in a steamer over an electric stove and steam for 15 minutes before removing them for consumption.Before eating, it's recommended to drink some ginger tea first; how exactly to eat the crab varies by region, but Northern people tend to be more straightforward, preferring to bite directly into the crab using their teeth.In contrast, Southern people are more refined and enjoy using a set of tools called "crab eight pieces" for a leisurely experience.
First, carefully separate the shell of a live spider crab from one side. This requires skill; hold the shell with one hand and press on its four legs with the other while applying force from one side to open the shell.
Remove the shell after separating it.Use scissors to pierce the internal organs of the crab roe, aiming to kill the roe. Next, remove the lung part of the roe, rinse with clean water to wash away any mud or sand, and finally remove the rubber bands from the claws (crab pincers) that were used to secure the living crab. These bands should be removed before steaming to avoid unpleasant odors and potential health hazards.Place the cleaned spider crab shell-side down in a steamer on an induction cooker and steam for 15 minutes, then remove it for consumption.）
Before eating, it is recommended to have some ginger tea first. I will not detail how to eat the crab as methods can vary greatly due to regional differences; northerners tend to be more rugged, preferring to directly use their teeth to break open and eat the crab.



In contrast, southerners are more refined, enjoying using the eight-piece crab set to savor each bite slowly.This may account for some of the differences in eating habits between the north and south!Perhaps this is why there are such regional variations in how one consumes crabs.
