Why are pike crabs so hard to beat hairy crabs? Is the taste much worse?

Barracuda crab is no worse than hairy crab in my eyes, and I still prefer to eat sea crabs in my personal taste, but I am still not used to eating river crabs. Qingdao is close to the sea, therefore, we have a soft spot for seafood! Hairy crabs will also be bought and eaten, but they are not as often eaten as barracuda crabs.

The taste of the pike crab is very delicious, and the taste of the hairy crab is very fragrant and glutinous, depending on whether the hairy crab has crab paste.

It can only be said that people who are used to eating pike crabs are a little uncomfortable eating hairy crabs. In the same way, people who are used to eating hairy crabs will always feel that the taste will be much lighter when they eat pike crabs. Personally, I don't think you can compare pike crabs with hairy crabs, after all, hairy crabs have the value of hairy crabs, but pike crabs are also as good as pike crabs!

The season for hairy crabs and pike crabs is different, so you can try both pike crabs and hairy crabs.

Barracuda crab hairy crab has a lot of meat, fat and fat, delicious and nutritious. Each 100 grams of crab contains 14 grams of protein and one gram of fat, and the fresh food is mainly steamed. Hairy crab is a type of river crab, and hairy crab also has many flavors:

Crab meat, crab paste, crab roe, crab roe. Among the crab meat, there are "four flavors": thigh meat, short and slender, with the same taste as scallops; The calf meat is long and delicate, as beautiful as a whitebait; Crab body meat, white and crystalline, better than white fish; Crab roe is indescribably wonderful and cannot be compared.

Most of the hotels will push hairy crabs, the reason why they will mainly promote hairy crabs is because the fame of hairy crabs is bigger than that of pike crabs, especially a brand of hairy crabs, every Mid-Autumn Festival or so, it is difficult to find a crab. As long as the pike crab is near the sea, there will be quite a good pike crab, the production of pike crab is more, so the ** is relatively lower, it can be said that the pike crab loses in the quantity, the number is too much, and the market is often a strange commodity to live in.

Is barracuda crab hard to beat hairy crabs? Much worse taste? I don't think there can be an analogy, each has its own merits.

The taste of the crab is not particularly delicious, and it is not delicious. It has a particularly big fishy smell, and the taste is very poor, not fresh at all.

The main reason is that the taste of the two crabs is not the same at all, and the hairy crabs are more delicious, and the taste is really much worse.

This is because the meat of the pike crab is relatively small, and the taste is not particularly bad, but the hairy crab has more meat and a lot of crab roe, so it is relatively popular.

The yield of hairy crabs is higher than that of pike crabs, and pike crabs are saltwater crabs, and all kinds of breeding will be restricted, hairy crabs are freshwater crabs, which are easier to breed, more convenient to transport, and earn more profits. The taste of pike crab is much worse than that of hairy crabs, and the meat quality is not comparable to that of pike crabs. So hairy crabs are expensive for a reason.

The differences between pike crab and hairy crab are:

1. The families and genera are different. Hairy crabs are freshwater arthropods belonging to the phylum Arthropods, while pike crabs are marine arthropods of the genus Arthropods.

2. The alias is different. Hairy crabs can also be called river crabs, clear water crabs, crabs, hairy crabs, etc., and pike crabs can also be called sea crabs, water crabs, three-point crabs, flying crabs, etc.

3. The origin is different. Barracuda crabs are found in Japan, the Malay Archipelago, Korea, Guangxi, Zhejiang, Shandong Peninsula and other places, and hairy crabs are distributed in the northern part of Asia, China and the western part of Korea.

4. The taste is different.

The size of the pike crab is relatively large, and the meat is very thick and full, and the taste is relatively delicious and chewy; The size of the hairy crab is relatively small, and the meat contained in it is not so much, mainly to eat the crab roe and crab paste contained in it, the crab roe and crab paste are rich in nutrients, and have the characteristics of delicious oil.

5. Different varieties.

Barracuda crab is a decapod pike crab family, because the head and chest are shuttle-shaped, so the name shuttle, and because the carapace has three protrusions, so it is also called "three-wart pike crab", "white crab", etc.; The hairy crab is an animal of the genus of mitten crabs of the genus of the suborder of the ventral embryo suborder, the scientific name is Chinese mitten crab, and the history is very long.

Hairy crabs are more delicious, mainly for the following reasons:

1. Hairy crab, also known as Chinese mitten crab, belongs to freshwater river crab, grows in rivers and lakes, and pike crab belongs to seawater crab, living in shallow waters at a depth of 50 meters offshore, because of the different growth environment, hairy crab meat is firm, no matter the taste of cooking is tender and delicious, the meat of pike crab is relatively fine and soft, and the sea smell is relatively heavy.

2. Hairy crabs are generally relatively small, and they can grow up to about 5 taels even if they are big, and the individual size of the pike crab can reach about half a catty after maturity, but there is no hairy crab meat full, especially the sweet and delicious crab paste of the hairy crab, the pike crab does not, in addition, the hairy crab belongs to freshwater aquaculture, as long as it is purchased in the listing season, it is basically fat and full, and the pike crab is a wild sea crab, once it is not picked well, there will even be an empty shell.

In fact, hairy crab and pike crab are two different tastes, as long as you find the right cooking technique, they are also delicious, for example, hairy crab because the meat is fresh and sweet, more suitable for steaming, no need for extra ingredients, the cooking method of pike crab is more of its variety and eating season to take different methods, and hairy crab although fat, but it is a seasonal food, generally only in the lunar calendar around September is the fattest time, but the yield is very limited, so ** high, Barracuda crabs can be bought all year round, and the yield is higher, so it is more accessible to the people.

Hairy crabs and pike crabs in the selection, are also female crabs taste better, especially the larger the flesh thicker, in addition to the fresh crab shell color bright, full of vitality, buy back hairy crabs or pike crabs are best not good storage, because once lost vitality, not only the taste is not good, after eating will also affect health, short-term storage for a day or two can be wrapped in a wet towel and put in the refrigerator for fresh storage, it needs to be reminded that crabs can not be put in water for a long time, will die due to lack of oxygen.

I think hairy crabs are more delicious; The meat of hairy crab is particularly full, and very tender, especially high yellow, it tastes like a duck egg yolk flowing with oil, very fragrant, and there will be no empty shell in the selection process, and there is no fishy smell when making it, which is very tender and delicious.

I think hairy crabs are more delicious, because the crab meat of hairy crabs is more delicious, and there is more meat, and it is really good to eat it with chili peppers.

Hairy crabs are more delicious, the meat quality of hairy crabs is very delicious, and it is more convenient to eat, and the taste is particularly good.
