”Matsuba Gani" or Snow Crab
Hello. Thank you for visiting my blog today๐
Three days left to December. It's the best season for enjoying delicious crab. There are three top brands of crab in Japan: Red king crab, Snow crab, and Hair crab. Today, the forth Saturday of November, is Snow Crab Day. To be precise, it's "Matsuba-gani" Day. Snow crab is called different names depending on where they are landed, such as "Matsuba-gani" and "Echizen-gani." Matsuba-gani is a name of snow crab which is caught in San-in region facing the Sea of Japan.
One of the origins of the name "Matsuba-gani" is that the long and narrow crab leg looks like pine needle called "matsuba."
I'd love to go to eat delicious crab๐
