The present invention relates to a method for efficiently extracting and producing lipid components from crustaceans. A method for producing lipids, characterized by obtaining a squeezed liquid by squeezing a whole crustacean or a part thereof, heating the squeezed liquid to a temperature at which proteins contained in the squeezed liquid coagulate, carrying out solid-liquid separation so as to separate the heated squeezed liquid into a solid component that contains lipid components and an aqueous component that contains water-soluble components, washing the resulting solid containing lipids or a dried product thereof with water, dehydrating and/or drying, and then extracting lipids from the solid containing lipids or the dried product thereof.
