Why do steamed hairy crabs taste bitter?

In fact, people who often eat crabs have encountered this situation. Peel off a lake crab, not golden crab yellow, but sparse pale yellow liquid. Lick it. It's bitter. Is there anything wrong with the quality of crabs?

Zhaixi Town, Tonglu is a well-known crab breeding base around Hangzhou. Many villagers have transformed the original paddy field into a crab farm, and only Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are naturally cultivated clean water.

The manager of Yangcheng Lake Hairy Crab in Crab Palace also said that the crab roe is not lumpy, but bitter, because the crab is still too tender and the time has not yet arrived.

The chef of a hotel specializing in Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs in Shanghai said that according to his experience, crabs are the most plump at the end of 10 to10. If you try now, try to pick the mother crab to eat. In September and June, the male crab of 5438+ 10 had no female crab fat, so it was "virtual".

Crab yellow is bitter. Besides the tender crab, there is another reason, that is, the preparation before cooking is not enough.

In addition, crabs must be soaked in clear water for two days before they are bought and cooked. Two days later, the crab was basically "clean". A clean crab's belly is full of dirty things, so crab roe naturally won't suffer.
