When preparing to eat, we can touch the eyes of the hairy crab one by one, if the eyes can be very flexible and agile to rotate, it means that the hairy crab is full of vitality, and can be stored for a period of time without dying, if the reaction of the eyes is slightly sluggish, then it means that it is not particularly energetic, and it should be eaten as soon as possible.

If the hairy crab's eyes are completely unresponsive, we take the crab out of the freezer, untie the rope, and see if the crab can crawl, or put the crab in the basin to see if it spits bubbles.

If the crab does not react to any of the above, then put the crab under the faucet and rinse it in cold water for 2 minutes, if the crab still does not "wake up" after washing through the water, it means that the crab is dead, and it can only be discarded regrettably.

Although the crab can be stored in the refrigerator, it needs energy to survive, so it will inevitably become thinner, and when you eat it, the meat will definitely not be as full as before. Therefore, it is recommended that you still eat as much as you want, and the fresh hairy crabs you buy are immediately steamed and eaten, and the taste is the most delicious!

If you buy hairy crabs that need to be stored for 1-2 months, then put them in the freezer of the refrigerator while the crabs are still alive and freeze them hard.

When eating, you can thaw the crab in salted water. After thawing, cook it immediately and try not to let the crab come into contact with the air to avoid bacterial growth.

I don't recommend this kind of storage for a long time. The hairy crab that has been put in the freezer will have a grade worse in taste and taste, the elasticity of the meat of the hairy crab will be reduced, and it is easy to have an excessive fishy smell, so it is recommended to eat fresh hairy crab is the most suitable.
