How to clean a crab

Jim Haguewood demonstrates how to clean a crab. Haguewood, a 1981 graduate of Washington State University's hotel and restaurant management programs, has been eating and cleaning crab for as long as he can remember. His family owned the Haguewoods Restaurant in Port Angeles, Washington, for 58 years.
He is a former director of the Clallam County Economic Development Council and works with the Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival in Port Angeles.
Jim says his favorite way to eat Dungeness crab is the simplest: cooked in salt water and then chilled.

This is the most informative video about crab preparation I've seen. It took a while till I found this video.

[@BarbaraEaton-e1c]

My dear sister sent me (land-locked in Arizona) 2 Dungeness crabs for Christmas today. I have always been treated to crab in Seattle, all cleaned and ready to eat. This is a new experience for me, and the video saved me. And I agree - the very best way to eat this treat is chilled, picking it out as we eat. Nothing better!! Thank you, Jim.

Wow, this is THE best video on KZbin about how to clean crabs. Very helpful, short and precise. Thank you

[@TrueBanditKing]

You can use the "unedible parts" to create a crab stock. Put them in a liter of water (or depending on the intensity of the crab taste you want), with some spices such as some whole onion and garlic, and bring to a boil and simmer for 10-20 minutes. Strain afterwards then put in a jar. For example, you can use this crab stock to cook ramen, or even add flavor to rice or stir fry.

I fished for crab for years and cleaned hundreds, the term actually is called the flap, crabs don't have tails.

the technical term of the under side of the crab you removed is called "the tail".

[@KSChong]

to be able to crack every part with mere bare hands, I think this guy has incredibly muscle strength

[@iwantmymoneyback9170]

Good job cleaning! I cannot eat crab unless it's cleaned properly and all the guts are removed. Then I get a toothbrush and scrub all that green stuff out. Thats just my personal preference

[@ns88ster]

Hit it in its weak spot for massive damage!

I have to say I have been processing crabmeat for 15 years and this is about the hardest way of doing it There are much easier ways with the right tools

You spend more energy extracting the meat than the energy you'll get out of it...
