Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Freezing the crab for about 1 hour and 30 minutes before mixing prevents the meat from falling apart during cooking and maintains its chewy texture.
  • Adding the potato starch slurry ensures the seasoning adheres tightly to both the surface and flesh of the crab without sliding off.
  • The gills are a major source of fishy odor, so cutting them away carefully with scissors results in a cleaner, more refined taste.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a delicious, spicy-sweet, fishy-odor-free restaurant-quality spiced crab at home.
  • People curious about the technique to prevent crab meat from breaking apart while mixing.
  • Those preparing an elegant side dish for special occasions or entertaining guests.
