Why is there no crab roe in frozen crabs?

The ovaries and digestive glands in the crab are called crab roe. Only female crabs have ovaries, so female crabs have more crab roe. Crab roe is orange-yellow and delicious. Crab roe is not crab eggs. Although the ingredients are basically the same as crab eggs, there is an essential difference between the two. Crab roe does contain unexcreted egg cells, but it also contains other crab organs, glands, tissue fluid and other substances. It is not just crab eggs. Let's talk about why frozen crabs have no crab roe? The reasons may be as follows.

1. It may be a male crab

As we all know, animals are divided into male and female, and crabs are the same. It is normal for crabs of certain sexes to have no crab roe. You must know that male crabs have much less crab roe than female crabs. Many people don't know this.

2. Crab quality issues

When buying crabs, please pay attention. Frozen crabs can easily lose their roe during cooking. Do not pick crabs that have been soaked in water, because it is difficult to tell whether these crabs are freshly caught. Moreover, the water content is also very large. Crabs that have been hungry for a few days are thinner and have less meat when you buy them back. Pay attention when buying crabs. You can turn the crabs over. Crabs are very strong, so if they are weak, please do not pick them up and take them home.

3. Steamed crabs are placed incorrectly

Steaming crabs also requires certain skills. Many people steam crabs with their abdomen facing down, which will result in less crab roe. The correct way is to steam the crab with its abdomen facing up and its shell facing down to prevent the loss of crab paste and crab roe. You should also sprinkle some salt on the crab belly before you start steaming. When steaming crabs, the crab roe is not easy to flow out. First, use cold water for steaming, not hot water.

4. The cooking time is too long

If crabs are heated at high temperature for a long time during the cooking process, the crab meat and crab roe inside will shrink, the crab roe will slowly leak out, and empty shells will easily appear. This is also a common situation.
