Spicy crab Panchan

How does it taste?

I reaaallly love this but I don’t want to go and buy the ingredients unless I’m 100% sure its going to turn out alright. I’ve heard that you have to be really careful when you eat raw crab.

I remember some parts of this recipe:

Freeze some live sea crabs for a while until they die or something.

Heat up the sauce: fish sauce, soy sauce, red pepper powder, garlic, sugar.

Put the frozen crab in the boiling sauce, stir and take it off the heat.

I wish Maangchi would put this recipe up :[ I’m too scared to try this recipe that I have never tried =T

I can’t read Korean, but I used one of those translator pages, and it has several ingredients listed. Much more, in fact, than I had originally suspected.

Don’t have any portions listed as the translation was rough, but I thought I’d jot down which ingredients I did see:

soy sauce

ginger

seasoned rice wine

corn syrup

minced garlic

ginger juice

chili powder

black pepper

a few drops of seasme oil

salt (to taste)

chopped green onions

Looks yummy! This is one of the banchans served when I go to the Korean restaurant. My only attempt at making crab banchan was when I bought a tub of it from the restaurant and used the leftover sauce. I bought fresh blue crabs from the Asian market and marinated them in it. Now that I have the recipe, I’ll have to give it a real homemade try.
