Description from the creator

Last week the Northern California is acting funny and we couldn't do much of fishing. So i took the chance and do some pure cooking(eating too). They are not rank in any particular order.

1st dish:
Classic steam/boil crab - personally i prefer steam crab as it retain more of the crab flavor that way. And you could just eat it solo or dip them in lemon and or butter.

2nd dish:
Crab taco - this is inspired by my experimental crab baked potato dish haha.
heat up the tortilla, add the sauce of your liking then stuff the tortilla with crabs, avocado, tomato, jalapeno, (if you prefer additional topping include lettuce, onion, and more)

3rd dish:
Scallion Ginger Crab - this is my version of the scallion ginger crab you normal get at the Chinese restaurant.
Cut up the crabs into chunks drain water and mix it with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, 5 tb corn starch, 1/2 tb sugar then mix it thoroughly - make sure all the shells are evenly coated with them. Leave it and marinate for 15mins.
Preheat the pan/wok, add oil cook up the scallion, ginger for 25 second add garlic right before you put the crab in.
Stir and cook at medium to low heat for 15-20mins. Add scallion leaf at the end and it is ready to be served!

4th dish
Crab Instant(shin) Ramen
Cut the crab up and put in half of the crab in 600-800ml of water bring that to boil.
Add instant noodle of your choice cook it up
Add egg(optional)
Add scallion (optional)

5th dish:
BBQ Barlic Crab - currently my favorite of all! The barlic sauce is THE sauce you want to try!!!
On a slow fire melt 1 stick of butter(unsalted)
Add some salt
Add some black pepper
Add some cayenne pepper
Add a bulb of garlic chopped into bean size, stir and cook for 1min( make sure not to burn it keep the fire hot enough that is sizzle - medium to low heat)
And most importantly, Add 3/4 of a whole lemon before you apply it on the crabs!!!

BBQ your crabs
brush the sauce onto the crabs
repeat on back side
repeat on front side
cook the crab on rack for 15-20mins.
once done take it out and brush the sauce onto the crab again, when you eat it make sure to dip in the sauce again to get the garlic chunks!! Trust me!
You will know when you took a bite at it.
The freshness, rich yet citrusy, the level of flavors i don't think i can fully describe it, so I really recommend you guys to try it yourself!!!

I hope you guys enjoy the video!
Once again thank you guys for watching! Let me know if you guys have any questions or suggestions!
