Tips:
1|When picking crabs, pinch the crab shanks, there will be more firm meat.
2: Before the crab is cut into the pot, place it with the cut side facing up. When the crab is placed in the pot, the cut side is facing down so that the meat at the knife edge will quickly solidify when heated, which can reduce the loss of crab's body fluid.
