The amount of water you need will depend on the stockpot you’re using. A basic stockpot takes about 24 cups (5,700 mL) of water, but adjust the amount as needed. This will be enough to cook about 4 lb (1.8 kg) of king crab legs. Make sure the crab legs are completely submerged in the water or else they may not cook evenly. If your stock pot is too small, cook the crab legs in batches or use multiple pots. For example, start with 1 tablespoon (17.06 g) of salt and stir it into the pot of water. Then, mix in 2 tablespoons (34.12 g) of store-bought seafood seasoning. You could mix in herbs like parsley and dill, put garlic and lemons in the pot, or customize the flavor however you wish. The salt is useful for seasoning the crab legs and getting them to cook at a more uniform rate. Even if you don’t plan on adding anything else, the salt is worth adding. Set your stove to a high setting and wait. Watch for the water to bubble at a consistent rate. It will take a little bit of time, so don’t rush to turn down the heat. The water has to be boiling before you put the crab legs into the pot. If it isn’t boiling, you will have a much harder time determining when the crab legs are done cooking. Drop the crab legs into the water, taking care to avoid splashes from the hot water. Use tongs to push the crab legs down and tuck them into the water as much as possible. Try to keep them completely covered by the water before letting them cook.  Any parts that are out of the water won’t get cooked. If you want the legs to cook at the same rate, keep them submerged. If you can’t fit all of the legs into the pot, save some of them to cook later. Adding the crab legs reduces the water temperature, so it won’t be bubbling anymore. Wait a couple of minutes until it begins to bubble rapidly again. Once it reaches that point, it will quickly cook the crab legs at an even rate. Plan on simmering the crab legs until they’re done. Check the water for tiny, consistent bubbles and wisps of steam. Start the timer once the water reaches that point. Leave the pot uncovered and watch as the crab legs change color. They will turn a consistent shade of red as they fill your kitchen with a delicious smell. Once they look done, use tongs to pull them out of the water. Put them on a plate to eat warm. Try serving the warm crab legs with melted butter and lemon juice. You could also enjoy them plain if you wish.
