Is the hairy crab steamed or boiled?
Question 1: Is the hairy crab 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 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 9: Should steamed or boiled crabs be cooked in hot water or cold water? It seems that you are really the first person to eat crabs! The best way to eat crabs is steaming, not boiling. When cooking crabs, be sure to put cold water in the pot so that the crab legs will not fall off easily. Eating crabs must be steamed thoroughly and cooked. Because crabs grow in mud, they often carry some toxins in their bodies. In order to prevent these pathogenic microorganisms from invading the human body, you must steam and cook crabs thoroughly. According to the size of the crab, it is appropriate to boil it for 8- 10 minutes, and the meat is mature but not too rotten. The crab meat at this time is the most tender and delicious. The time is short and the steam is not ripe. After a long time, crab meat will not taste good when it is old. Note: the crab's brain and lungs are not edible. Whether to boil crabs with hot water or cold water depends mainly on whether the crab feet are tied. Those who tie their feet don't care. They don't need cold water. If the crab feet are tied with ropes, they can be steamed with hot water; If steamed with hot water, the crab is not dead, but its feet fall off first.
