Basic introduction of Yashao Jianshan crab

Jianshan crab is a local species with excellent characteristics among sawedge green crabs, belonging to the phylum Arthropoda, class Crustacea, order Decapoda, family Zodiaceae, and genus Crabapple. It is mainly distributed at the intersection of salty and fresh water from the mouth of the Nalong River to the vicinity of Jianshan Bridge.

. Its original species is the wild sawedge green crab along the coast of Yashao. Some of the wild crabs migrated upstream through the Nalong River and propagated in the Jianshan section of the river. After a long period of natural selection and species evolution, they eventually formed the Jianshan crab

The Jianshan crab mainly inhabits caves on the banks of the Nalong River near its estuary, with a mainly grayish white clay substrate, but there are also a small number living in mangrove forests. During the day, they often cave and rarely come out for activities. At night, they search for food everywhere and have a diverse diet, mainly consisting of bivalves such as mud clams, oysters, and clams

Although delicious, it should also be eaten in a proper way. Experts remind citizens to pay attention to hygiene and health while eating crabs with their bellies open. Due to the abundant histidine in the crab's body, bacteria can rapidly multiply in the crab's body after death, causing histidine to produce toxic histamine. Eating cooked crabs that have been stored for too long can lead to poisoning. When steaming crabs, it is necessary to heat them for another half an hour after boiling to prevent the microorganisms inside the crabs from being completely killed

And the most famous place to cook Jian Shan crab in Yangjiang is the Xinlanlin Hotel on Yabai Highway (diagonally opposite the PetroChina gas station). The hotel is about one kilometer away from Jianshan Bridge, the birthplace of Yangshao Jianshan Crab in Yangjiang
