Kegani (Horsehair crab)

Origin: Monbetsu (紋別) Hokkaido, Japan. 1pc( approximately 1kg) 

Type: Frozen (Preboiled) 

Kegani (Hairy crab) is in season! Kegani is a relatively small crab compared to other species consumed in the archipelago, making its flesh more dense and tasty. It's more delicate to eat, but crab connoisseurs tend to prefer it over others. 

This item is already boiled and all you need to do is just to thaw naturally and enjoy it as it is. The Kani-miso (crab innards) is treasured in Japanese cuisine as a delicacy. Please enjoy the hairy crab's flavor and its umami from the miso.
