대게
대게, or "snow crab," is a popular seafood delicacy found in the cold waters of the East Sea and Bering Sea. Known for its sweet, tender meat and distinctive long legs, 대게 is often enjoyed steamed or boiled. It is a favorite dish in Korean cuisine, especially during special occasions and celebrations.
The harvesting of 대게 typically occurs in the winter months, when they are most abundant. Fishermen use traps to catch these crabs, ensuring sustainable practices to protect their populations. 대게 is not only delicious but also rich in protein and low in fat, making it a healthy choice for seafood lovers.
