What is Kegani?
Hokkaido Kegani (毛蟹), or Horsehair Crab, is a prized delicacy harvested from the Pacific Ocean surrounding Hokkaido. Smaller than most popular crab species, Kegani earns its nickname from the spiky hairs covering its shell. Despite its compact size, it delivers dense, sweet, firm meat and a treasured Kani Miso (crab innards) that's celebrated in Japanese cuisine. This 500g pre-boiled frozen crab is ready to thaw and enjoy — no cooking required.

Important Notes

  • Pre-boiled — thaw overnight in refrigerator before serving; Kani Miso (innards) is a prized bonus
  • We package with care, but any transit damage must be reported to the carrier directly

Cooking methods:

Fully defrost the crab in the fridge overnight or in the kitchen for 3-4 hours. As the Kegani has already been pre-boiled, it can be eaten as it is after defrosting.
