Cancer jiru

Ganjiru is a local dish of Usa made using crab (also called mokuzugani or zugani) caught in large and small rivers that flow through the Usa Plain from winter to spring. Since it is difficult to eat as it is, if you cut the river into pieces, crush it into small pieces with a mixer, etc., and remove excess shells, etc., and put it in the soup and heat it, the components such as protein become fluffy lumps and floats It goes up. It is a simple dish that is seasoned with salt and soy sauce, and the ingredients are only takana. Until the middle of the Showa period, it was often made by ordinary households, but since the number of rivers themselves inhabited is decreasing and it takes time and effort to make them, they are being made at home, except in some areas, decreasing. There are various theories about the name, but it is said that crab soup is called “crab soup” with an accent, and the way it is called “ganjiru” gradually changed.
