Hello everyone! Recently, my daughter watched a video of spicy marinated raw crabs (yangnyeom gejang) on social media even though she has never tried it and she really want to give it a try.

Instructions

Step 1

1. Thaw the frozen crabs under running water. When you do this, the crabs that were stuck together will automatically separate as they melt. Once you have thawed the crabs quickly, put them in a colander to drain off the excess moisture.

Step 2

2. Cut off the legs with no meat at the ends using scissors. Also, cut off the ends of the pincers. The legs of the crabs are the parts with no meat.

Step 3

3. Pour about half a cup of mirin or cooking wine over the cleaned crabs. Mix well. Leave them in the freezer for about 20 minutes.

Step 4

4. Cut 2 spring onions into appropriate sizes. Also, slice the onion into suitable sizes. Thinly slice the ginger. Finely chop about 6 cloves of garlic. Slice one red chili pepper thinly.

Step 5

5. Peel the pear and grate or blend it well.

Step 6

6. Making the seasoning sauce. Grate half of a pear. 1/2C red pepper flakes (gochugaru), 1/2C soy sauce, 3T tuna fish sauce or fish sauce, 2T minced garlic, 1/2C rice syrup, some sliced ginger, and 1T sesame seeds in a bowl. Mix well.

Step 7

7. After 20 minutes: These are the crabs that were left in the freezer. Take the crabs out from the freezer and put them in the seasoning sauce. Add the sliced onion, spring onion, and red chili pepper. Mix well with a spoon or spatula. Transfer to a serving dish.
