Chilean Whole Cooked King Crab

Product Overview

These are whole cooked frozen wild king crabs harvested from the cold deep sea of Chile. Immediately after offshore capture on fishing vessels, the crabs are fully boiled for sterilization and then blast-frozen under ultra-low temperature to lock original freshness. Delivered as intact whole crabs with no thick ice glaze, no water injection for weight gain. With bright red spiky shells and plump meat-filled legs, they are premium top-tier seafood for Japanese sashimi platters, hotel banquets, Western main courses and luxury holiday gift boxes. Available for both retail sales and large-volume wholesale for catering businesses.

Core Advantages

1. 

Wild Caught in Cold Chilean Deep Waters for Superior Meat Quality Sourced from the frigid South Pacific offshore waters of Chile. Long growth cycle in low-temperature seawater makes the crab meat firm, bouncy, naturally sweet and rich in pure ocean umami, with negligible fishy odor. The distinct layered muscle texture is far superior to farmed crab products, highly recognized in high-end seafood markets worldwide.

2. 

Onboard Cooking & Vessel Flash Freeze Lock Maximum Juiciness Standardized full cooking right on the fishing boat followed by instant ultra-low temperature freezing prevents moisture loss and flesh oxidation. The texture remains tender and succulent after proper thawing, requiring only short-time reheating instead of prolonged boiling, retaining the best edible state close to freshly cooked crab.

3. 

Intact Whole Specimen, Ice-Free Net Weight, High Cost Performance Each crab keeps complete body and legs without breakage, featuring attractive bright red appearance ideal for food presentation. Zero heavy ice coating ensures true net weight without hidden ice weight. Perfect for high-end banquet plating with outstanding visual impact, cost-effective for both individual buyers and bulk restaurant procurement.

Storage & Cooking Instructions

1. Storage: Keep airtight and frozen at -18℃, shelf life 18 months. Avoid repeated thawing and refreezing.

2. Thawing: Defrost slowly in refrigerator compartment. Never soak in hot water which causes watery and mushy flesh.

3. Cooking Tip: For raw sashimi use, only gentle cold thawing is needed; for cooked dishes, steam for 5–8 minutes or quick oven bake. Overcooking will shrink and harden the crab meat.
