Begin by cleaning the blue crabs thoroughly under cold water to remove any impurities.
In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, water, sugar, and sesame oil until the sugar dissolves.
Smash the garlic cloves and slice the ginger into thin pieces. Add them to the soy sauce mixture.
Place the cleaned crabs in a suitable container and pour the soy sauce mixture over them, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Cover the container tightly and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. If you have time, marinating for 2-4 hours will enhance the flavor.
Once marinated, remove the crabs and chop them into serving pieces.
Top with chopped green onion for garnish before serving.
