The second step, so we need to do 1 more step to keep the crab still, so that it is more worry-free when washing. How? Take a toothpick and poke it in the crab's mouth, and it will no longer move, so that it is easier to wash, and most importantly, the crab will not struggle during the steaming process, will not lose legs, and will be able to remain intact, which is the first point.

The third step, when washing the crab, focus on scrubbing the crab's belly, as well as the root of the thigh, which are relatively dirty parts, and after brushing and cleaning, we will rinse it several times until there is nothing dirty, you can prepare to steam, pour an appropriate amount of water into the pot.

Fourth, here is a question, I would like to ask you, when steaming crabs, do you use boiling water or cold water? In fact, if you want the crab to be steamed more tender, the meat quality is not firewood, and the fishy smell is reduced, you must steam it in cold water, which is the second point.

The fifth step, you can put the crab in the following, when putting the crab, there are also skills, if the operation is not done properly, the crab roe will flow out. Crabs must be placed with their white stomachs facing up, and if they are placed in this position, the crab roe will not flow out, which is the third point.

Step 6: Put a slice of ginger on top of the crab, cover the lid and start steaming, and steam for about 10 minutes. After steaming, take it out, eat it while it is hot, it is very delicious, and you can also use vinegar and ginger shreds to make a dipping sauce and dip it to eat, which can neutralize the cold nature of the crab.
