Cookingdom Level 37 Walkthrough
Cracking open the steamed shell is the key step in Level 37. Catch and steam the crab, then use the shell tools to open the legs, remove the meat, and plate the body and leg pieces with the lemon garnish.
Board Notes
- Layout
- The level starts in the water with the fishing rod hovering over debris and a shark, then shifts to a steaming pot beside a whole king crab and a plate of segmented crab legs. The final shell-opening board adds scissors, picks, and the serving board.
- Goal
- Steam the crab, remove the leg meat from the shell, and finish the serving board with the crab body, leg pieces, herb bed, and lemon slices.
- Opening
- Catch the crab, then steam it before any shell work begins. Once the shell is cooked, the board becomes a careful pick-and-scissors sequence.
- Danger Zone
- The crab looks wrong if the shell is cut while it is still raw or if the extracted meat never goes back to the serving board. The lemon slices are part of the finish too.
- Mechanics
- Level 37 is a shellfish-disassembly board, using picks, scissors, and shell segments instead of a normal cut-and-pan workflow.
Quick Tips for Cookingdom Level 37 (spoiler-free)
- Steam the crab fully before you bring out the shell tools.
- Stage the extracted meat neatly instead of mixing it with the empty shell pieces.
- If the board feels stuck, look for the color with the cleanest path and use that to regain space.
