In this video, you'll see how hairy crab egg omelette is done in Okinawa streetfood.

First, the hairy crab is dipped in some crumbs and washed afterward. Next, the hairy crab is tied up by folding the legs on each side and the string is tied vertically and horizontally across the crab. After tying, the hairy crab is now ready to be steamed in boiling water alive until it turns out into a bright orange. Once it turns into a bright orange, the crab is now ready to be opened. All the meat inside the hairy crab's shell will be taken out to be mixed in battered eggs before frying. The hairy crab egg omelette is now ready to serve!
