How to preserve hairy crabs will not die, and how to preserve live hairy crabs is not easy to die

In order to keep the crabs fresh, some people put the live crabs directly in the refrigerator and freeze them, thinking that in this way they can eat very fresh crabs. In fact, this practice is taboo, if you put it directly in the refrigerator to freeze, the crab meat will become very chai. When steaming, the crab roe is also easy to flow out, losing the deliciousness of the crab meat, and the gains outweigh the losses!

But don't use it this way.

Therefore, when keeping the crabs fresh, they should be put directly in the refrigerator, but it is a big taboo. Below I will share with you a little trick for preserving crabs, using my method to preserve, live crabs are very fresh for 5 days and will not die. You can eat delicious crab at any time!

Only a few towels are needed to preserve the crabs. Wash the tied crab a little and rinse the surface with clean water. Then take a towel, wring the water after wetting, the water on the towel should not be too much, but not too dry, first spread a wet towel on the refrigerator, then tie the crabs one by one, and place them on top of the towel.

After setting it up, take out another towel, wet it and wring it again, then put this towel over the crab and cover the crab completely.

If you preserve the crab in this way, you can ensure the survival of the crab, even if it is left for 5 days, it is still fine. If you want to leave the crab for a long time, take the towel out again every day and re-wet it again to keep the crab moist so that the crab does not die.

But try not to leave the crab for so long, because if the crab does not eat for a few days, it will consume its own nutrients. The more time the crab is left out, the thinner the crab will be, and the worse the taste will be. You can only put it for 2 or 3 days in this way, and it shouldn't be too long, even if you put these crabs alive for a week, but the taste is not as good as when you just bought them.

This method is best used for only two or three days, and the fat crabs should be eaten quickly, and don't wait for them to become thinner before eating!

A way to preserve the crab from dying.

1. Refrigerator + wet wipes.

The activity ability of crabs is still relatively strong, many merchants will tie up crabs, just to reduce the energy consumed by crab activities, if you don't eat them in time after buying them, you can tie the crabs and apply them to the surface with wet wipes, and then put them in the refrigerator. The temperature of the refrigerator is about 5-10.

2. Live culture at room temperature.

The season of eating crabs is about October, the temperature is not particularly hot, soak the crabs in water, change the water regularly, do not brush the crabs in advance, the damage to the crabs will be greater and will lead to a large number of crabs dying.

3. Nutritional maintenance.

If you want to keep the crab alive for a week or more, it is recommended to untie the crab and bury it in a larger basin with water, the crab can stand out of the water to breathe, and then put in some small shrimp, or feed some sesame seeds, broken eggs and rice wine, which can promote fattening.

Keep it in a cool place, don't soak in too much water, and occasionally drop a few drops from the top to the mouth of the hairy crab.
