Sweet Shrimp has become an embraced and generalized term, but in reality, only a certain kind of shrimp can be called Ama Ebi, or Sweet Shrimp. The shrimp found in the depths of the Sea of Hokkaido are worthy to be known as the delicacy: Ama Ebi.

Hokkaido Ama Ebi Sashimi: Sweet Shrimp

There are sweet shrimp hailing from Russia and Canada, but they do not compare to the Ama Ebi found in Hokkaido. The difference lies in the range in quality, umami, price, and sometimes all three.

We ensure quality by only sourcing from Hokkaido, when they are at their largest and at the peak of their life cycle to ensure a saturated sweetness.

The waters of Hokkaido provide our premium Ama Ebi. They are flown in directly whole, juicy, fresh, and have a luxurious and robust sweetness. 

Knowing if Ama Ebi Is High Quality or Not

One of the biggest factors in knowing whether you’re purchasing quality Ama Ebi Sashimi is whether or not the shrimps’ heads are pre-removed. Do not invest in Ama Ebi if the does not come completely intact.

According to the industry’s ecology, lower quality Ama Ebi will have their heads removed after caught and before sold to a fishmonger because it cannot be qualified as Sashimi.

Frozen, prepacked Ama Ebi are inherently lower quality. Many merchants freeze their Ama Ebi that’s in stock because it is easier to store and keep longer. When the heads are not intact, it makes them easier to store frozen, as well.

Tips from Us

The shell of Hokkaido Ama Ebi is both fragile and soft, making it easy yet messy to peel. During the peeling process, we highly recommended that you soak the Ama Ebi in cold water, ice water is even better, to make it easier.

Soaking Ama Ebi in cold water also makes the meat more elastic and sweeter. The entire peeling process should be done in the ice water. Do not just soak the Ama Ebi after it has been peeled.

If you’re purchasing your Ama Ebi through us, you will not need to worry about these troubles because we have a professional chef on staff, who is in charge of handling it carefully and correctly. Leaving the hard work to us allows you to enjoy with worry.

The Importance of the Shrimp Heads

The body of the Hokkaido Ama Ebi is naturally very sweet in flavor. Keeping the head on the shrimp helps preserve this natural taste when prepared as Sashimi, or raw.

Aside from an indication of distinguishing high quality Ama Ebi from low quality, leaving the head on makes for a deeper flavor when deep fried or used in Miso Soup.
