I Have Crabs
I had some crabs that is and raw, it is a delicacy in here, I told my mother a few days ago that I saw someone in Facebook posted about her having some of these delicacy of raw river crabs for a meal. These crabs are never meant to be eaten cooked because they taste better a little fermented/fermented.
These crabs are only salted and then eaten after a few hours raw. The main selling point of these crabs are their fat as they go well with some rice and some fish sauce with some squeezed local lemon. That is about it, you just carefully take out the fat from the shell and the body taking care not to puncture the stomach otherwise you will get some diarrhea.
The stomach of the crab is at the shell if you open it behind the mouth. So you leave that center be and just scrape off the yello-orange fat and the fat on the body . You will also squeeze out the meat in the process which you dip in the fish sauce with some local lemon and with some hot chillies if you so prefer.
So that will be your most sumptuous and palatable meal, well if you have the taste for it. I was forced to eat while sitting down and using my hands in the process. It was not too easy but because this meal is delicious I was able to not mind the discomfort just to eat again this kind of delicacy that is rarely sold in the markets.
I demolished some already and there are few left for me to eat later this evening. I am confident that I will not get a diarrhea because I had done the right way of eating it. It really taste like heaven even with my appetite-loss issue I still had enjoyed eating it even with some difficulty because of my hand and mouth disfiguration.
I figured you knew what that meant. Lol.
Btw, in preparation for HF21 I’ve upped my voting %’s. I think others will too!
Thank you @daveks

Yes I have thought of it before making the title :P @gungho
We catch and boil blue crabs here in the US. Looks like the same species to me but can't tell. Fermenting sounds wonderful but I am too scared to try!

These are river crabs, their fat is more intense than Blue crabs but blue crabs can be fermented too.
this is not something you want to say in english, unless you were trying to be funny... it has a different meaning.
Cheer-up @torico I am just trying to be funny. :D Unless I didn't know that it is not acceptable to say it.
as long as you are aware of what the slang means.. ;)
