간장게장 is a traditional Korean dish made from crabs that are marinated in a soy sauce-based mixture. The crabs are typically raw and are soaked in a blend of 간장 (soy sauce), garlic, ginger, and other seasonings, allowing the flavors to penetrate the meat. This dish is known for its rich umami taste and is often served with steamed rice. The preparation of 간장게장 can vary by region, with some variations including additional ingredients like 고추 (chili peppers) for spiciness. It is commonly enjoyed as a side dish or an accompaniment to rice, making it a popular choice in Korean cuisine.
