How to clean and prepare a whole crab

[@tiare5022]

Mud crabs are my favorite. I grew up in Samoa and we'd eat a few mud crabs every Sunday. They are getting harder to find now because the mangroves where they thrive are decreasing. Thank you for the wonderful video! Now I'm craving crabs!!!😅🤗🦀

[@merika206]

Thanks so much for this! I have seen a lot of people getting rid of the “gold” inside the shell. Love your Singapore Chili Crab recipe!🥰

[@RoyG.BivDevoe]

Huh...it really isn't as difficult as I initially thought to prepare whole crab. Another great video Ms. Nagi, very informative. 👍

[@winkipinki007]

Agreed!

[@maydaygarden]

It's no wonder crabmeat is so expensive. There's alot of labor involved for the little amount of meat you actually get. From the claws mainly. That recipe looks really good.

[@rockstar450]

The best tasting is from the rear of the body. Notably in females. Worth the work to get it!

[@maureenleah13]

I am so glad you saved the tomalley and used it in the dish. I hate to see it get wasted.

[@HomeCookingJourney]

Never made a crab recipe before! Interesting 😁

[@jb5758]

Is it me or if you look closely you can see a face on the thumbnail of the crab! Just wanted to put it out there, so bizzare. Optical illusions 🤔

[@alexandrearnold6382]

evil face

[@IndianMaxx]

What does the crab mustard consist of?

[@Ama-hi5kn]

I used to catch crabs all the time. We went out crab hunting. With my mom who loved crab meat. Gutting them was sort of. Interesting. The smell lingered for about a few days.

[@kraftthisile9113]

I hate spiders. I can't do all this to the crab I won't make it unless blindfolded.

[@snorecore814]

Crabs aren’t spiders.

[@puliliar7692]

Me too

[@TheRealBorb]

​@@snorecore814crabs closely resemble arachnids despite not actually being ones themselves

[@letsgoletsgoletsgoletsgoletsgo]

so you don't really hate them, you are afraid of them

[@neelambista9046]

So I olso hate spiders but I think you are talking about the spider crab

[@aahen5303]

Wow they look magnificent

[@kaelisprime9087]

What's the background music called?

[@JerichoJumpAndGO]

does this hurt the crab

[@wits692]

They freeze it to death in the beginning

[@shiftyshamsk]

Better off using a 12 bore shotgun.

[@cookingwithmimmo]

Look so good and perfekt. Top recipe

[@jasonzitha2662]

That look so yummy 😋

[@glendaharding4884]

How interesting!

[@twicedemita2151]

It’s an old rusty buck that’s why claws ain’t full

[@heynhamnham]

Never ate a crab before and after this video I think I'm a bit traumatized but I watched it to the end so maybe there's still hope that I'll eat it (in 2094)

[@Dikshantz95]

People love to eat crabs but are often scared by seeing them alive or they're afraid to hold a crab :(

[@jesuslives952]

You can see a face in in the crab in the first part of the thumbnail!

[@MrDcFh]

Yea

[@jesuslives952]

@@MrDcFh are you agreeing ? Or sarcasm?🧐

[@cliffelliott9331]

Interesting way to clean a crab, but I don't think a cleaver was necessary since all the joints just twist and pop right off.

[@ninjitsu2005]

some crabs have thorns . you can just twist them without getting injured

[@kevenchristie8676]

tomally is not always safe to eat. its the reason causing shell fish poisoing

[@sudomeister1911]

Yes. Although many find its flavor distinct and delicious, it is recommended that you do not eat it since many chemical contaminants concentrate in the organ. It is the crab's hepatopancreas, which is a combination of the liver and pancreas. It's a yellow substance that filters impurities from the crab's blood, similar to how the liver works in humans.

[@swetakar7248]

I do like eating crab , i rarely ate but can't make it. Here they don't take out meat , they simply cook it by making pieces , and one need to suck them out while eating.

[@hcs2057]

Yum.😋

[@vincentkingsdale8334]

Just need to freeze for about 5 minutes, or ice water

[@steemdup]

is this a female crab?

[@kenexx]

No

[@neesargon3497]

A female is called a hen so the male is called a cock crab. If you turn a crab over and look at its underside, you will see a flap. If the flap is narrow, it is a cock. Hen crabs have a broad, rounder flap. This one is a cock crab. You really need one of each to compare them.

[@maydaygarden]

My sister lives in Maryland. She said a female has an underside flap that looks like the Capitol bldg and a male has the Washington Monument.

[@neesargon3497]

M.E. Miller Hahaha. I don't know those buildings but I'm sure she's right. 🦀

[@gerardparker4220]

Dog cameo!!

[@dirceuvaladas9490]

My girl didn't leave the recipe link

[@deboraalexis4016]

Wow! Your strong to be break up the crab that way! Enjoy the at least I know for next time! Thanks u!❤❤

[@gregorkrause]

on the #thumbnail part of this video i clearly saw a chinese man's bearded face.

[@marioss846]

Your crab's back has a face

[@KratosLiveTV]

omg you didnt kill the crab after coming out of the freezer, you just went ahead and started tearing it apart. big dislike.

[@miloudiamarzaq]

👍👍👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹

[@shells5625]

[@PILOSOPAUL]

all that crab fat, yummmmmmmmmmmmmm

[@家庭啊公告國立]

Nasty you did not wash out the crab back ewww

[@Pahakyy]

Very unethical to freeze a crab to death.

[@ninjitsu2005]

how about cooking the crab alive ?

[@julianhobrough1290]

Giant sea spider. Finally you disgust me,.

[@shiftyshamsk]

Jezz, in the freezer alive. Just seems like killing for the sake of a meal, when there are so many great vegetarian dishes out there. Everyone to there own tho, I'm not hear to judge.

[@madelinecalderon375]

Isn’t that yellow stuff it’s poop or something like that??

[@imtiazuddin2578]

fat

[@CHASEDOWNBLOCK]

I actually don’t got the balls to do this

[@DeVon675]

2:49 oh my God why are they keeping that? I almost threw up 🤢
