Botan Prawn Sushi [Botan Ebi]

Japanese Name and Pronunciation:

[botan-ebi]

Botan Ebi no Nigiri Sushi is a delightful and exquisite Japanese dish that features fresh Botan Ebi, also known as Botan Shrimp, served on a small, hand-formed bed of seasoned sushi rice. This sushi preparation highlights the natural sweetness and firm texture of the Botan Ebi, making it a prized choice among sushi enthusiasts.

To create Botan Ebi no Nigiri Sushi, skilled sushi chefs carefully wash and peel the shrimp, and then place it on top of the sushi rice. In the case of female shrimp during the spawning season, they may be presented with their bluish-green eggs on the Botan Ebi sushi as an accompaniment.

Botan Ebi, with its strong sweetness, delightful texture, and satisfying juiciness, offers a truly pleasurable dining experience. Its perfect harmony with the sushi rice allows it to effortlessly melt in your mouth, leaving behind a pleasant aftertaste.

Not only a visual delight, but this exquisite and delicious Botan Ebi is a culinary sensation worth savoring. I highly encourage you to indulge in this delectable treat.
