Blue Swimmer Storage

Hi guys

Any tips on freezing Blue Swimmers

Is it better to cook then freeze or freeze then cook?

Cooked then freezed.

I've found cooking a Blue Swimmer after it has been frozen to be pungent, might have something to do with the post regarding fresh water on seafood where the bacteria in fresh water creates havoc to the smell and freshness.

If you like blue swimmer crabs eat them fresh. If you like washed out taste then cook them, remove the meat and freeze that. If you leave them whole you will taint the flesh and taste like crap with a P not crab with a B.
