Ingredients

4 live blue crabs
2 tablespoons Korean sesame oil
1 tablespoon chopped ginger
3 red semi-hot chilies, seeded, sliced thin diagonally
3 green semi-hot chilies, seeded, sliced thin diagonally
3 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons chopped scallions, green part only
2 tablespoons hot red chili powder
1 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
3 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 medium-size onion, sliced thin

Preparation

1
Scrub the crabs with a firm brush to clean.
2
Remove and discard the upper shell - only the body and legs of the crab are used. Do not dislodge the orange crab roe that clings to the inner shell and contents.
3
Cut the body into halves, then each half into 2 or 3 pieces including the legs.
4
In a bowl, mix the remaining marinade ingredients together.
5
Strain the marinade into a bowl, reserving the seasoning ingredients.
6
Mix the crab pieces in the marinade, cover, and place in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours.
7
After 24 hours, add the reserved seasoning ingredients to the crab, mix well, and serve at room temperature.
