Instructions

  1. 1

    Scrub crabs clean and halve them carefully without crushing internal organs.

  2. 2

    Slice radish, zucchini, and onion; diagonally slice green onion.

  3. 3

    Bring stock to a boil and dissolve doenjang through a strainer.

  4. 4

    Add radish and onion first, simmer for 6 minutes for sweetness.

  5. 5

    Add crab, garlic, and chili flakes, then simmer 8 minutes over medium heat.

  6. 6

    Add zucchini and green onion, simmer 3 more minutes, and serve immediately.

Tips

Overcooking crab toughens the meat; keep crab cooking to around 10 minutes.
Dissolving doenjang early helps reduce fishy odor.
