The right way to eat crabs
Many people say that they like to eat crabs, but they don't eat crabs. They often chew crabs at random, or they just eat crab roe and throw away their legs. Some gourmets say that people who can't eat crabs usually take meat with shells, bite it down, chew it a few times, and spit it out with meat with shells, so the crabs that really eat into the stomach are very limited. Some readers said in the interview that when they eat crab, they first lift the crab shell, suck the crab cream, then break the crab into two sides, eat the other side after eating, and finally eat the crab pliers and crab claws. Gourmet analysis, these people do not know how to eat crabs, can not really experience the delicious crabs.
It is understood that the correct way for crabs to eat is to first remove the round cover on the body of crabs. If it's female, you will see the Yellow crabs in the belly, which is the most delicious thing on the body of crabs. On both sides of the crab near the thigh, there are some white things like brush hair, which can't be eaten. After eating crab roe, you can eat crab meat, which is white like fish.
When eating crabs, it's better to break them into two parts, so as to expose the crab meat with white flowers. When cooking crabs in some hotels now, they are also directly split into two parts, so that the crab yellow and crab meat are directly exposed in front of the eaters. Crab legs are generally left to the last to eat, this is because eating crab legs takes time, and there is not much meat in the legs. Of course, when eating crab, you should try to eat the legs as much as possible, which is not only because the meat in the legs is delicious, but also can avoid waste.
Warm reminder: Although crab meat is rich in nutrition, its cholesterol is on the high side. If you add crab roe and crab cream, it will be more considerable. Therefore, people who have this concern (such as people with gallstones, systemic lupus erythematosus, allergic constitution and gastrointestinal discomfort) can be controlled when eating to avoid health impact.
