Cooking Inspiration: Classic Flower Crab Recipes

Unlock the potential of your flower crabs with these beloved recipes!

1. The Simple Steamer (Best for Pure Flavor)

• Ideal for: First-time crab lovers.

• Method: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a few slices of ginger and spring onions to the water. Place the live crabs in a steamer basket over the boiling water, cover, and steam for 10-15 minutes until the shells turn bright orange-red.

• Serve With: A simple dipping sauce of light soy sauce, minced garlic, a touch of chili, and a squeeze of calamansi or lime. This method highlights the crab's natural sweetness.

2. Silky Steamed Crab with Egg White & Shaoxing Wine (Elegant & Sophisticated)

• Ideal for: A luxurious, restaurant-quality dish.

• Method: Create a delicate custard from egg whites and chicken stock, strained into a plate. Arrange prepared crab on top and steam until just set. The magic happens at the end: drizzle with Shaoxing wine and light soy sauce, top with julienned ginger and spring onions, and finish with a sizzling pour of hot oil. The result is an incredibly silky, aromatic, and umami-rich masterpiece.

• Serve With: Simply steamed jasmine rice to enjoy every drop of the delicate custard.

3. Singaporean Chili Crab (A Flavor Explosion)

• Ideal for: A messy, fun, and spectacular meal.

• Method: Sauté a paste of chilies, garlic, and ginger. Add tomato ketchup, chili sauce, sugar, and a splash of water to create a rich, tangy, and slightly sweet gravy. Add your pre-steamed and cracked crab sections, simmer for 5-7 minutes to absorb the flavors, and thicken with a cornstarch slurry.

• Serve With: Lots of crusty bread or mantou (fried buns) to mop up the incredible sauce!

4. Black Pepper Crab (Aromatic & Savory)

• Ideal for: Those who love a bold, peppery kick.

• Method: Crack the raw crab into sections. Heat oil in a wok and stir-fry crushed black peppercorns, butter, garlic, and shallots until fragrant. Add the crab and stir-fry quickly. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and a splash of water. Cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes until cooked through.

• Serve With: Steamed jasmine rice. The pungent and aromatic black pepper sauce is incredibly addictive.
