Today’s odor is hairy crab (big sluice crab, 大闸蟹). But the odor in my mind is not the crab itself. Hairy crabs are usually steamed. The taste is delicious, but the smell is not obvious. The odor comes more from green onion, ginger, or yellow wine drunk with it.
So maybe even the same food has different smell memories in different cultures?
They are simply steamed and served with ginger tea or yellow wine.
