Preparation Tips
- Cleaning: Start by rinsing the frozen soft shell crab under cold water to remove any debris. Pat dry with a paper towel before cooking.
- Tenderising: Frozen soft shell crab is typically tender, but if needed, gently pound the body with a meat mallet to ensure an even texture.
- Trimming: Before cooking, remove any inedible parts, including the eyes and gills, if they are still attached.
- Slicing: You can leave the crab whole or slice it into portions for even cooking, depending on your recipe.
- Cooking time: Soft shell crab is best cooked quickly. Sauté or fry for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Flavouring: Enhance the natural sweetness of the crab with simple seasonings like garlic, lemon juice, or a sprinkle of herbs. Avoid overpowering ingredients to allow the delicate flavours to shine.
