Kani. The celebrative seafood.
-
Boiled kani (crabs) are often served at celebrations in Japan because of their decorative red shells. They are especially popular in winter when caught fresh around the country, but are enjoyed throughout the year as one Japan's finer seafoods. Zuwai (snow crabs), known for their long legs and sweet, refined meat, have different names in Japan depending on where they are caught. For example, they are called Matsuba crab when caught in the Sanin region and Echizen crab when caught in Fukui Prefecture. Zuwai crabs from Kanazawa are especially popular.
