About Zuwaigani
Zuwaigani refers to snow crabs found in the cold waters of the Sea of Japan and Sea of Okhotsk. Male crabs are commonly known as Matsuba-Gani or Echizen-Gani, while females are called Seiko-Gani or Kobako-Gani. The leg meat from males is especially prized in sushi for its clean, sweet flavor and smooth texture.

Flavor Profile
Zuwaigani contains a natural balance of sweet, umami, and bitter amino acids like glycine, alanine, and glutamic acid—resulting in a uniquely refined crab flavor.
