When you buy soft shell crabs, be sure they are still alive. Usually they look quite dead, weak and limp. Touch their legs, eyes, or mouth. Even if they respond only slightly and slowly, they are still alive. Refrigerate them as soon as you get home. Cleaning them is quite simple. Clip off the eyes and mouth. Lift the top shell and remove the soft feather-like gills and discard them. Turn the crab bottom up. Tear off and discard the cartlidge. (the shape of the female's is half-oval, the male's is a narrow triangle).

In Korean, yangnyum gyejang is often called a “bap doduk”, bap meaning rice, and doduk meaning thief, aka rice thief. It’s called a rice thief because you’ll steal bowls and bowls of rice for this one.
The hanwoo(premium Korean beef) restaurant I go to near my home in Korea would have yangnyum gyejang as a banchan (side dish). I would honestly go not for the beef, but for these spicy marinated crabs. It’s smothered in a sweet spicy sauce that would get on both sides of my mouth making me look like the joker by the time the meal was over but I would crush through it. In Korean, yangnyum gyejang is often called a “bap doduk”, bap meaning rice and doduk meaning thief. It’s called a so-called “bap thief” because you’ll finish your rice so quick with this dish that it would feel like someone stole it away from you. I can easily finish two bowls of freshly steamed white rice with this dish, and it’s definitely something you should try in your lifetime.

Eating Live Sea Urchin
Uni is most certainly not for everybody. If you can get over the appearance, it's a blast of unique, briny creaminess. While in some areas of the world they're an invasive species that plague beaches and deter swimmers, they're a delicacy in sushi restaurants throughout the globe. Today, I've gotten my hands on some live Santa Barbara sea urchin.
