Killing crabs Crabs should be alive at the start of processing but must be killed prior to boiling; otherwise they will shed their claws. They can be killed either by drowning in fresh water or by spiking the nerve centre or brain.
Spiking through the nerve centre is done by inserting a pointed rod just above the mouth parts; the crab is killed almost immediately.
Cooking Crabs should be cooked immediately after killing by boiling them in water containing per cent salt for minutes, depending upon size. This amount of cooking will kill a very high proportion of the bacteria present, and will destroy any potential disease-causing organisms. Picking After cooking, crabs delivered unpicked are transferred to picking stations where the meat is removed from the shells and is washed and packaged.
Cold Storage Crabmeat to be utilized immediately is maintained iced or refrigerated until canning. Crabmeat to be processed later may be frozen at this point and maintained in the frozen state until needed. Thawing When required, thawing is accomplished by immersing crabmeat in tanks containing circulated potable water. Sensory evaluations are conducted after thawing to assure acceptable quality.
Cooked crabmeat is cooled quickly to maintain quality. They have round shells and slim legs. As this particular species grows older, their shells start to change color and turn from a bright red to a muted yellow. Snow crab meat even though not as highly valued as the King Crab, has a light and slightly sweet taste. The meat is very versatile in the kitchen, making it an wonderful addition to most seafood dishes and salads. Process: Snow Crab is caught and frozen at sea.
Once the catch is brought on deck, the processing cycle begins.
