Shiga Sweet Shrimp
A melting sweetness that clings to the tongue. The sweet shrimp of Shiga Town are known as the "Red Jewels of the Sea" and are a winter delicacy that Noto is proud of. Their official name is Northern Shrimp (Hokkoku Akaebi). They live in the deep waters exceeding 200 meters off the Noto Peninsula and are carefully caught one by one using shrimp traps. Since freshness is vital, the Shiga Town style involves packing them alive immediately upon landing. The clear, bright red flesh looks exceptionally high-quality. Above all, they are best enjoyed raw. After a plump, bouncy texture, a melting sweetness gradually spreads through your mouth. In winter, before spawning, the meat becomes thick, and an individual carrying blue eggs is truly special. Once you taste these, other sweet shrimp will feel insufficient.
