I always prefer to use a live crab for this recipe, but a lot of people will find this offputting. A cooked crab can be used instead, although the flavour will not be as strong. Crab shells that have been saved from another day can also be used, but once again the flavour will not be as good – in fact, if you are only using saved shells, then either cut down on the amount of liquid added or use at least a third more shells.
