Boiling Blue Manna Crabs

Method: 1: Bring a large pot of water to the boil and approximately 2 tablespoons of salt and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Once water is at the boil place crabs in the pot upside down.

DO NOT TURN DOWN THE HEAT

2: Cook for approximately 5-8 mins. Once they start floating & are a very vibrant orange colour it is a good indicator to tell they are cooked.

3: Once crabs have reached this point, take them off heat and place them into cold/ice water.

4: Let sit for 5-10 mins & then clean the crabs.

5: Clean crabs by lifting the flap underneath them and removing the top shell, then rinse under cold water briefly and remove the mouth parts and gills.
