Trails to Tsukiji - Season 4 Episode 18 Kuruma-Ebi
This time, we focus on kuruma-ebi, considered the king of shrimp when it comes to Japanese cuisine. With its elegant appearance and full-bodied umami flavor, it's frequently featured as a good luck charm at celebratory feasts. We visit Amakusa, an island with spots recently given World Heritage status, and meet the producers dedicated to bringing the freshest, best-tasting kuruma-ebi to consumers.
