게장 is a traditional Korean dish made from raw crabs that are marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, and other seasonings. The crabs are typically cleaned and then soaked in the marinade, allowing them to absorb the flavors. This dish is known for its rich umami taste and is often served with steamed rice. There are two main types of 게장: 간장게장, which uses soy sauce for marination, and 매운게장, which incorporates spicy ingredients like gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes). Both variations are popular and enjoyed for their unique flavors and textures.
