    softshelled crabs are ....

    really creeping me out every time I see them in the bowl

    I am going to make them for dinner ..I have never cooked them before ...

    I know they are good..... but they really do have kind of a strange look to them for something you just bite into ...you know

    Yeah, but you'll get over that as soon as you take the first bite outta 'em. YUM! I'm coming to your house for dinner!

          Hurry, pop those suckers in a pan!!! That'll teach them not to look at you that way.

                Nope, on soft shelled you leave the guts in while your cooking them & scrape them out when your eating the main body. How are you planning on cooking them?

                  Oh, you can put some ice on them 10 minutes before you put them in a pan so they go to sleep and don't try to escape the pan. I do this with hard shelled crabs before I pull the backs off of them and scrape the gut out. It's more humane that way. LOL

                        No, don't eat the guts. Just scrape them out of the way when you're eating them, after they are cooked. I guess you could try getting the guts out before you cook them, just make sure you don't put too much water in the pan or they will get really soggy and not tast good. All of the gut are just under the top shell, the meat is under the guts of the body.

                            Ewww...this conversation is creeping me out! I had them once, flash-fried, and thought they tasted like sawdust. I hope yours turn out better!

                              Sawdust!! Then they were not seasoned right. That's all I have to say.
