The method of making broth using discarded parts like shrimp and crab shells is very common in both Chinese and Western cooking.
Although the flavor is not as rich as with whole crabs, it doesn't matter; the goal is to extract as much flavor as possible from the crab shells to replace plain water.
To make a dish delicious, you must use broth. If you use plain water, you have to add chicken essence or MSG; otherwise, the overall taste will definitely be bland.
Broth can be cooked separately or prepared using techniques. For instance, white fish soup is basically broth; it's just made with the fish itself and served together, not cooked separately.
Once all the ingredients are prepared, you can start making Crab Roe Tofu.
During the process of disassembling the crab and simmering the crab soup, the Crab Blood Tofu has completely cooled down.
Because the mold was brushed with vegetable oil, a gentle tap on the cutting board releases the mold completely.
