There are two keywords, one is "steaming" and the other is "bye". After these two words are done, eating crabs is the beginning.

There is a saying that the origin of the name of hairy crab is related to the way the ancients cooked it. It is said that "hairy crab" was originally written as "big crab", and "boo" means fire-cooked, "big boiled". "That is to use a strong fire for a longer time of cooking. "Boiled crab" can be subdivided into "boiled crab" and "steamed crab".
"Boiled crab" should be the earliest method we used to cook crabs, which can be traced back to Dayu. At that time, crabs were not eaten by humans. Crabs were not called crabs, but were trapped insects that would damage crops and hurt people. At that time, Ba Jie, who was ordered to treat the flood at the edge of Yangcheng Lake , came up with a way to scald people and insects with boiling water.This scalding not only successfully solved the plague of humans and insects, but also made people discover its deliciousness. At the same time, the method of boiling crabs has been passed down. This is the earliest method of cooking hairy crabs.
"Steamed Crab" is the best culinary solution discovered by many diners in my country’s thousands of years of crab-eating history. "Steaming" is the use of water vapor generated after the water boils as a heat transfer medium, and the heat of the steam is used to steam the food, and the cooked dishes are in their original shape. People find that the steaming feature is particularly suitable for cooking crabs: without damaging the shape of the hairy crabs, it can also inspire the delicious taste of the hairy crabs to the fullest.

Thousands of years of inheritance of crab culture has allowed people to pay more attention to the appearance and way of eating when eating crabs. Even if they break it with their hands, they will use tools to assist them. Of course, the most classic way of eating is "after eating a crab is still a crab".
Steamed and cooked hairy crabs have their original flavor. You can break the crab directly without pretending to be the hands of others. Break off each crab leg completely, and cut it into three sections with scissors along the joint, or top or pick to pick out the crab meat, the same is true for crab claws. After eating the crab legs and eating the crab body, the crab cover is removed, the yellow paste in the crab cover is dug out, and the cold triangular crab stomach cannot be eaten. Throw away the gills and heart of the crab, then break the crab body into two, and eat the crab meat along the threads.
After eating, throw all the uneatable parts into the crab lid, and put the crab "navel" on the crab shell. Turn over and place it in the middle, and place the hard shells such as crab feet and crab claws on the crab body. Arranged in order on both sides, it is still a complete hairy crab.
