This pickled red crab is the favorite of people in my hometown!
There are many ordinary pickled crabs and you can often eat them, but this pickled crab (female swimming crab) is not often eaten because there is no old brine and it cannot be made to taste them. Moreover, live red crabs are too expensive, so they are rarely cooked.
A friend sent a few red crab that had just been caught from the sea. They were only alive and very fresh. Let's learn to do it yourself!
