It's already thawed... The instructions say not to refreeze it once it's thawed... I can't eat it right away.
Each box contains 2 crabs, one male and one female, weighing 1.5-2 taels. The female crabs have roe, while the male crabs have crab paste. Plain crabs can be a bit fishy, so I steamed them instead. Once the steamer is boiling, add the crabs , perilla , and ginger . Steam over high heat for 5 minutes. Serve with balsamic vinegar, shredded ginger, and a little white wine. Despite being a bit smaller, the taste, quality, and price are all excellent!
The special price is really attractive. Friends in the group said that there are a lot of creams, so I placed another order.
It's delicious. Lots of yellow. I ordered a few more.
Two hairy crabs, as shown in the picture, are still very plump. But I think they are a bit fishy, so I must add ginger vinegar sauce before eating them.

Each box contains one male and one female crab. The crabs are very plump, with roe and crab fat, but the meat lacks the fresh flavor of crab meat. They're okay if you marinate them in a strong sauce. I wouldn't buy them again.
It's so delicious! I feel like a lot of restaurants use this directly in their cooking.
A small box of drunken hairy crabs, I hope they taste good.
This was my first time trying hairy crabs, so I'm not sure if they were authentic or not. Anyway, I thought they were delicious, sweet and salty, and I'd definitely buy them again!
There were two huskies in total, not very big. The roe was plump, but the meat wasn't very tender. Just average.
