Have tried several of your crab recipe posts, the crab with sotanghon, roasted butter and garlic crabs and chili and garlic crabs… all delicious and the recipes are relatively straight forward and simple. I urge the other readers to try them out!

What a delightful article on crabs, Market Man! I am new to this site and have subscribed to it only last week. I am not a fan of the crabs at our local store here in Ohio. But since we seldom have truly fresh seafood, we indulge ourselves once in a while when the crabs are on sale for $7.99 per pound. The crabs taste mostly salt than actual crab, in my opinion. I miss the actual taste of crab.

Market Man, that crab photo looks delicious. I’m not much of a cook, but ill certainly give it a shot. I had a Singaporean friend who would whip up chili crabs for all of our thanksgiving get together– took him zero time but tasted amazing!

Apicio, hahaha, you are TOO FUNNY. Brought back memories of the first days in college, when trying to talk about things from home, I said among other things, “we have tons of crabs on the farm…” to which roommates just burst out laughing…

Remember Market Manila community, it’s crab-meat when in North America not crabs. Crabs is something else altogether there.

That picture just gave me a craving.

It’s funny how most Manila folks are so crazy over seafood, expecially crabs, when growing up, I’d always prefer fried chicken than fish, crab, shrimp, etc. Now that I work here in Manila though, I’ve been missing all these underwater yummies abundant at my hometown (Roxas City, Capiz). *Sigh

By the way, my mom also makes amazing chili crabs, and she puts gata or coconut milk on it.*Salivates
