The difference between snow crab and king crab

When it comes to eating crabs, many people like it, but many people find it troublesome. Especially northerners, few people are interested in eating crabs, because it is simply too troublesome to eat, and it takes a lot of effort to eat only a little meat. So some big crabs are more popular in the north. When it comes to big crabs, the most famous one must be the king crab.

King crab is actually not a crab, but belongs to stone crab in biological classification. King crabs usually live in the deep sea, so it is very dangerous to catch them. However, the delicacy and value of king crab also attract countless fishermen and gourmets. At present, a king crab of four or five kilograms may cost one or two thousand yuan, but it is still not worth selling.

But you know what? Maybe the "king crab" you bought home at a high price is actually not a king crab at all, but another kind of deep-sea crab. This is a snow crab. Let's look at their differences.
