(BPT) - Have you ever had the pleasure of tasting genuine Canadian snow crab? Known for its sweet and salty flavors, this delicacy often leaves you craving more. However, it's not found in many sushi rolls, and the alternatives that are often used don't quite hit the mark.
So, what exactly does it take for this prized ingredient to journey from the sea to your sushi roll? Let's explore how Canadian snow crab makes its way to your table (and your favorite sushi)!
Canadian snow crabs live in the depths of cold ocean waters off Canada's coastlines. Fishermen catch these succulent crustaceans by placing pots (metal cages) in the crabs' habitat.
Of course, not just any snow crab will do. Fishermen that follow responsible fishing practices only harvest male crabs above a certain weight and do not exceed the quotas set by Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans. By doing so, they're helping preserve the population and environment for future snow crab harvests so you can continue to enjoy snow crab sushi season after season.
Once caught, these crabs are transported to restaurants, where they're expertly prepared and served to delight your taste buds!
Taste the difference
Sustainably caught snow crab isn't just good for the environment. How crab is caught impacts the ingredient quality and, ultimately, taste. That's why Kura Revolving Sushi Bar restaurants choose premium, ethically sourced Canadian snow crab, ensuring a delicious choice for sushi lovers like you!
