Nutritional values

Just like sea fish, crabs are also rich in iodine and are therefore allowed to be on the menu more often. This mineral is often in short supply in our country - one portion of the crab risotto covers about half of the daily requirement of iodine.

Instead of the crabs, 200 grams of firm fish fillet in pieces is also suitable. You can exchange the zucchini for pumpkin, the tomato juice for carrot juice. Especially spicy: crab stock instead of vegetable stock!
