If you're planning a seafood feast for your friends and family, snow crab legs are a must-have on the menu. But preparing them for a crowd can seem daunting. With this guide, you'll learn how to prepare snow crab legs like a pro, and impress your guests with a delicious and satisfying meal.
Before you start cooking, you need to thaw the snow crab legs. The best way to do this is to place them in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours. If you're short on time, you can also place them in a sealed plastic bag and submerge them in cold water for a few hours until they're fully thawed.
Once the crab legs are thawed, fill a large pot with water and add salt. Bring the water to a boil, and then add the crab legs. Let them cook for 5-7 minutes or until they're heated through.
If you prefer a different cooking method, you can also steam the crab legs. Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Place a steaming basket over the pot and add the crab legs. Cover the pot with a lid and steam the crab legs for 5-7 minutes or until they're heated through.
Once the crab legs are cooked, remove them from the pot or steaming basket and arrange them on a platter. Serve them hot with melted butter, lemon wedges, and your favorite dipping sauces.
