The snow crab fishing ban was lifted on November 6, and I went to Omimachi Market, which was dyed in red!
The reason for the bright red color is that Kano-gani (snow crab) has a "blue tag" attached to it, which proves that it was caught in Ishikawa Prefecture. The beautifully displayed Kanou crab was a sight to behold! When actually purchasing, the price seems to be determined by the "weight and size" of the snow crab, so it might be a good idea to consult with your budget and eating style while making your choice. Also, at this time of the year, why not use it as a year-end gift?
And don't forget about "Kabako crab," a female snow crab. The fishing season for Kabako crab is short, lasting until the end of December, and it is one of the most precious ingredients. In fact, locally, Kabako crabs are more popular than male snow crabs, and many people buy them at supermarkets to enjoy at home! You can even eat Kabako crab at stores in the market, so be sure to try it when you visit.
Why not enjoy the taste of winter in Ishikawa Prefecture at Kanazawa citizens' kitchen, "Omimachi Market"?
