PS- I shared this recipe over at Or so she says too 🙂
How did you cut your crab legs like this?
I must admit that they came cut like that from the grocery store but I found this helpful info (https://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_split_king_crab_legs_in_half_at_home) “I wear a glove or use a towel to hold the crab leg in one hand and use a pair of kitchen shears to cut the leg from one end to the other. The meat will fall out. If they are the smaller ones that are finger sized in diameter, I use a short tined fork and work one tine under the shell and pry up. This splits the leg a little. Push the fork into the split and continue till you get to the other end. This works like the old fashioned can openers.” Hope that gives some good ideas 🙂 xoxo~ Ruthie
