Crab been hoon is a Singapore rice vermicelli dish with whole mud crab served in a claypot and spiced milky broth.[1] Bee Hoon or rice noodle has the ability to soak up the stock from any dish and that’s the reason this dish is so popular among the locals. There’s also a dry version, where thinner rice noodles are tossed in a hot wok before stewing in a broth until every strand is permeated with similar sweetness.
