    i wonder why there was no brown meat in the cavity? When I buy dressed brown crab theres normally enough to fill 2/3 of the shell

      To leave an answer to the question for those that wonder: If it's outside season, then you'll mostly find these in the sea. Where I live we call them "watery crabs" and just toss out again for someone else to perhaps fish it when it's full of meat. They barely don't have any brown meat at all, but just a water, and you can feel it when holding them that they are empty and of light weight. The ones to keep feel much more heavy and dense in the hand, and I'm not sure if I'm correct in this, but females usually have more meat. The crabs can also be put in large boxes of wood in the sea, kept right below surface (not sure what the English word is for these boxes), and fed with fish. But during season, in late summer, early autumn, they are usually easy to find, eating barnacles in the nights, along the shores, and full of delicious meat, both brown and white meat, as well as roe in the females.

      It's a brown crab. You can tell brown crabs easily due to them being brown and crab-like.

  • @terryjohns3252
    @terryjohns3252 6 років тому +2

    Rick you made a big mistake? You put the crab in the pan the wrong way up. The way you put it in means the juice of the crab is going to escape into the water and you lose a lot of the goodness and flavour. Claw side up in very little water and a slow cook simmer with the pan lid on. PS you don't need salt either as the crab contains salt naturally. Try it and you'll taste a big diffrance.

      Definitely you don't need salt, it hides the delicate flavour.
