In America, crab salad, crab dips are common in buffets. It tastes so good. Crab cake is also a famous preparation. Other than that, crab is usually boiled in some salted water and eaten as such. In Chinese and Singapore cuisine, crab soup and chili crab is very famous.

Kids may find it difficult at first and need adult help. But they will surely enjoy the taste of crab meat.
