I believe many people have heard of crab meal and lion head. Mix crab meat and minced pork to make meatballs, and then mix with broth, which is fat but not greasy, delicious soup, and rich in nutrients. Because the meatballs are large and round, they are exaggeratedly called "lion heads". I think that cooking this dish really tests the endurance of the cook. Not only must he be patient to pick out the crab roe and crab meat, but also hold back the gluttony, otherwise I really want to make the crab roe and the crab every minute. The meat is delivered to the mouth. Haha! "

Tips:
1. When steaming hairy crabs, put some ginger slices, balsamic vinegar and cooking wine in the water;
2. Minced meat is chopped with a knife, and the meatballs made in this way have a strong taste;
3. The balsamic vinegar used to marinate the minced meat here is made from grape juice and wine. The acid has a sweet and thick taste, which can be said to play a finishing touch. The meatballs taste delicious and fresh.
