Why are frozen swimming crabs so cheap on Meituan?

There are two reasons why Meituan's frozen swimming crabs are so cheap:

1. It’s frozen, not very fresh, and the taste is not very good.

2. The crabs are frozen or freshly dead from fresh food stores, and the price is several times cheaper than buying fresh ones directly.

Which is better, hairy crab or swimming crab?

1. Both crabs are delicious because they are not the same species. The swimming crab is a sea crab. When it is cooked over fire and served with vinegar and ginger juice, the taste is original. Freshwater hairy crabs need to be fried or boiled with ingredients. The cream is rich and delicious. But if both crabs are steamed and eaten at the same time, if you eat the swimming crab first and then the hairy crab, you will feel that the hairy crab is always unfamiliar. In fact, it is already cooked. So different ways of eating are different. As long as they are done right, they are all delicious.

2. Compared with hairy crabs, hairy crabs are thicker, while swimming crabs are slightly more expensive. But in terms of nutritional value, swimming crabs are slightly inferior. The meat of swimming crabs is tender and white, rich in protein, fat and various minerals. Every 100 grams of meat contains 14 grams of protein, 2.6 grams of fat and other nutrients. The crab meat of hairy crabs is salty and cold, which has the effects of clearing heat and removing blood stasis, nourishing yin, and can be used to treat injuries and fractures. Every 100 grams of hairy crabs contains 17.5 grams of protein, 2.8 grams of fat, 182 milligrams of phosphorus, 126 milligrams of calcium, and 2.8 milligrams of iron. In addition, crabs contain more vitamin A, which can also supplement calcium for rickets in children and osteoporosis in the elderly.

I personally think hairy crabs taste better.

Hairy crabs are rich in protein, fat, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin C, carotene, calcium, phosphorus, and also contain small amounts of carbohydrates, copper, sodium, selenium, etc. Crabs are rich in protein, and their amino acid structure is close to what the human body needs, making them especially suitable for people who have consumed a lot of protein and need to supplement nutrition after surgery, illness, or chronic wasting diseases.

People who like to eat hairy crabs must choose the cost-effective Crab Mansion, which was founded in 2009 and has been focusing on direct sales of high-quality hairy crabs. After more than 10 years of development, it has now developed into a powerful brand integrating ecological breeding, direct chain and e-commerce. The Crab Mansion headquarters breeding base is located in Suzhou, Jiangsu, and the operation headquarters is located in Shanghai, China. It has nearly 10 direct sales branches in core cities such as Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Chengdu, Jinan, and Changsha. Its customers are spread across more than 300 cities across the country, serving more than 10,000 customers, and the number of crab tasting people has accumulated to millions. It has been loved by crab lovers for many years.

Now the autumn has entered the state of late autumn, and in half a month it will really enter winter. When autumn is not completely over, have you eaten hairy crabs? Recently, I learned that there is a kind of crab called swimming crab. In summer, swimming crabs sell very well, but in autumn, many people prefer to eat hairy crabs. The most famous one should be Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs. Do you know the difference between these two kinds of crabs? I didn't know it at first, but I checked some information privately, so I will share with you what the difference is, and I will tell you which one I think is the best.

Let me introduce the hairy crab first. When it comes to crabs, we have to talk about hairy crabs. Its stuffing tastes salty and sweet, and most importantly, its crab roe and crab paste are particularly delicious. The most perfect hairy crabs can only be eaten in autumn. Generally speaking, they are steamed. Don’t think that steamed ones are not good. In fact, the best way to cook hairy crabs is to steam them. Some good restaurants use top-notch ingredients. If you want to judge the quality of the ingredients in this restaurant, just order a steamed hairy crab and you will immediately see the difference.

The crab meat and crab paste of swimming crabs are similar to those of hairy crabs, but the cooking methods are more diverse. There are many kinds of swimming crabs. Swimming crabs living in salt water can swim, so they have a pair of legs, which is something that hairy crabs cannot match. Every year, the number of swimming crabs in our country is much larger than that of hairy crabs. The crab meat of hairy crabs tastes more compact, and the crabs are more tender and smooth, which is more suitable for children to eat frequently. Swimming crabs are also suitable for steaming, but there are many ways to cook it that many people like, such as swimming crab fried rice cake, swimming crab vermicelli pot, and swimming crab stewed rice.

I think hairy crabs are the best. Because in terms of size, swimming crabs are bigger than hairy crabs. Among hairy crabs, if there is a hairy crab of about 5 taels, it is already considered to be of similar size, and it is very large, but if the swimming crab is 8 taels, it can only be considered very average among swimming crabs, so swimming crabs are slightly better than hairy crabs in terms of genes, probably because they live in the sea, so they grow more domineeringly and wildly. But in terms of taste, I prefer the taste of hairy crabs. The crab meat tastes firm and sweet in the aftertaste, while swimming crabs have some fishy smell, probably because swimming crabs live in the sea. This is because when I was making these, I always felt that the taste was not as pure as that of hairy crabs, because the fishy smell was really unbearable for me. However, these can be used as a side dish for drinking. Many people eat swimming crabs in the summer. After all, hairy crabs are best tasted only in autumn.

After reading this article, you should know the difference between swimming crabs and hairy crabs, and which season is best for them to eat! Why not discuss with the editor which one do you think is better? Some people prefer swimming crabs, while others prefer hairy crabs. It's just that everyone has different tastes. Which of these two crabs do you like best? By the way, tell us why you like them!

Compared with swimming crabs, hairy crabs are heavier, while swimming crabs are slightly more expensive. However, in terms of nutritional value, swimming crabs are slightly inferior. The meat of swimming crabs is tender and white, rich in protein, fat and various minerals. Every 100 grams of meat contains 14 grams of protein, 2.6 grams of fat and other nutrients. The meat of hairy crabs is salty and cold in nature. It has the functions of clearing heat, removing blood stasis and nourishing yin, and can treat injuries from falls, tendon injuries and fractures. Every 100 grams of edible part of hairy crabs contains 17.5 grams of protein, 2.8 grams of fat, 182 milligrams of phosphorus, 126 milligrams of calcium and 2.8 milligrams of iron. In addition, crabs contain more vitamin A, which can also supplement calcium for rickets in children and osteoporosis in the elderly.

In addition, the appearance of hairy crabs is also excellent, and they need to be eaten with the "eight pieces of crab". Swimming crabs are large and meaty, suitable for people living by the sea. They are standard and unrestrained when eating swimming crabs. They are basically finished in a few bites, which is completely different from the artistic style of Shanghainese and Jiangsu people who eat hairy crabs leisurely.

Therefore, everyone has their own opinions. Everyone has different tastes and opinions, and different standards for evaluating food. There is no single standard answer to the question of which one is better, swimming crab or Yangcheng Lake hairy crab. It depends on personal taste.

Of course, the hairy crabs from Yangcheng Lake are delicious, fat and delicious, the taste is really good! Generally, November is the best time to eat them. Swimming crabs are sea crabs, most of which are frozen, the meat is loose, and the taste is too bad. Only when you go to the beach and catch the live crabs that the fishermen have just caught, the taste is still good.
