Do you love indulging in seafood but feel intimidated by the thought of cleaning and cracking a Dungeness crab? Fear not, we’ve got you covered! In this post, we will take you through the process of cleaning and cracking a Dungeness crab like a pro.
First things first, let’s gather all the necessary tools. You will need a large pot, a pair of tongs, a seafood cracker, and a sharp knife.
Step 1: Rinse the crab Place the crab under cold running water and rinse off any dirt or debris that may be on the shell.
Step 2: Remove the apron Flip the crab upside down and locate the apron, which is the triangular flap on the underside of the crab. Hold the crab firmly and pull the apron away from the body.
Step 3: Clean the crab Use a seafood brush or a toothbrush to clean the shell and remove any remaining debris.
Step 4: Remove the top shell Hold the crab firmly with one hand and use the other hand to lift off the top shell.
Step 5: Remove the gills Once the top shell is removed, locate the gills, which are the feathery-looking structures on either side of the crab. Remove and discard them.
Step 6: Remove the innards Locate the crab’s innards, which are located in the center of the body. Use a spoon or your fingers to scoop out the innards and discard them.
Step 7: Crack the legs and claws Use the seafood cracker to crack the legs and claws, being careful not to crush the meat inside.
Step 8: Serve and enjoy! Arrange the crab on a plate and serve with lemon wedges and melted butter.
