Hairy crabs are too unsuitable for eating outside. Not to mention expensive, the quality of crabs may not be good. The crabs you buy are affordable, and you can choose good crabs. When choosing crabs, look at the color of the crabs. The back of the crabs should be turquoise, the belly of the crabs should be bulging, and the yellow and cream will be fuller. You can still see it from the belly. There are a lot of crab yellows with obvious yellow color, and you have to look at the crab's buttocks. There will be more crab yellows with thick buttocks. If the cream is white, it will be difficult to judge the male crabs. The most obvious is the crab claws, the hair on the crab claws should be denser. Also, crabs must be active. Once the crabs are selected, steaming the crabs is very simple. It is satisfying to eat at home! ! "
