Kuruma Ebi (Japanese Tiger Prawn)
Highly prized in Japanese cuisine, Kuruma Ebi—also known as Japanese Tiger Prawn—is celebrated for its natural sweetness, firm texture, and elegant presentation. With its distinctive striped shell and beautifully curved shape, Kuruma Ebi is a premium choice for sushi, sashimi, tempura, and grilled preparations.
Its flesh is delicately sweet with a clean, refined finish, becoming even more flavorful when lightly cooked. When served as sushi, it offers a tender yet slightly crisp bite that pairs perfectly with seasoned rice. For tempura, it fries to a light, succulent perfection while maintaining its signature snap.
10 pieces per pack and total weight is 250g.

The pioneer behind America's finest sushi
The Art of Premium Sashimi
The Super-Frozen Advantage
Yama's -70°F storage preserves seafood at its peak, maintaining natural color and texture without the carbon monoxide commonly used in retail settings.
Professional Standards
Quality indicators include vibrant color, translucent flesh, and clean ocean aroma. Premium fish shows distinct fat lines with firm yet yielding texture.
Simple Preparation
Let exceptional quality shine with minimal intervention. For sashimi, use a sharp knife and slice against the grain. Remember: the finest seafood needs little more than quality salt, fresh citrus, or a hint of wasabi.
