Food Facts: Kuruma Ebi also known as Kuruma Prawn or Japanese
Tiger Prawns are known for their large size and extremely sweet taste. Kuruma
Ebi is wild caught in Japanese waters and then processed in China. Kuruma Ebi
is considered one of the best shrimp for sushi and is most commonly used in
Edo-style dishes.
Taste/Cooking: Kuruma Ebi has a sweet taste and firm texture. It is best served raw or boiled. To serve the shrimp raw, after defrosting it is recommended to give the shrimp a light rinse in water before peeling the shrimp. The heads can be set aside for cooking while the meat can be eaten raw. High End Sushi Chefs also prepare Kuruma Ebi shrimp by boiling it which enhances the sweet flavour of the shrimp. When preparing the shrimp to boil, Chefs will make slices along the ventricle and attach the shrimp to a skewer. This prevents the shrimp from bending while cooking.
