Chef's Notes
Freshness is absolute law here. If the crab smells overly fishy before cooking, feed it to the stray cats and start over.
Pro Tip
Crush your black pepper and fennel seeds right before adding them; pre-ground powder lacks the royal punch.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware of overcooking the crab into rubbery little rocks by walking away to check your smartphone during the final roast.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the crab cross the road? To escape the massive amount of chili powder about to ruin its peaceful day.
The Culinary Science
Seafood proteins cook exceptionally fast; high heat applied at the end drives off excess water and caramelizes the surface sugars of the onion-tomato paste.

Delicate Protein Preservation
Storage Science
Cool quickly and refrigerate in an airtight container immediately. Seafood degrades rapidly; consume within 24 to 48 hours maximum.
Reheating Science
DO NOT microwave on high. Seafood proteins tighten and become rubbery when rapidly heated. Reheat gently in a covered pan over low heat with a splash of water or stock to create gentle steam, preserving moisture.
