Typhoon Shelter Fried Crab is one of the representative dishes in Hong Kong.
Nowadays, there are very few chefs who can copy authentic Typhoon Shelter Fried Crab. If you go to Hong Kong, you must eat authentic Typhoon Shelter Fried Crab!
If you go to Hong Kong, I recommend Hei Kee, or Chua Lam Food Court in Hung Hom, Kowloon, or Spicy Crab under the Bridge (if cost-effective, I recommend Spicy Crab under the Bridge)
In 1884, Hong Kong's first reclaimed sea shelter was completed in Causeway Bay, attracting import and export ships from all over the world, and Hong Kong's typhoon shelter culture was also nurtured in this diversified environment.
Today, the famous typhoon shelter dish "Typhoon Shelter Spicy Crab" has been out of Hong Kong under the leadership of its founder, Xi Shu, to face the world.
But it doesn't have to cost a lot of money to eat such delicious fried crabs, as long as you choose the right ingredients, you can eat delicious typhoon fried crabs at home. "

Tips:

1 Choose fat crabs, male crabs, and female crabs to see your taste. If you don't like to eat a lot of crab cream, you can choose virgin crabs. Don't choose male crabs that have ovulated or over-mate.

2 Don't over-fry the garlic. This is the key to good taste. Identify it according to the color in the picture.

3 Wine should choose a wine with a strong aroma but no other flavors. Just can't choose wine with sour, spice flavor other than wine, otherwise it can be overwhelming.

4 Sea salt is the best choice, which can fully bring out the sweetness of crab meat.
