Ama Ebi, or “sweet shrimp,” is a sushi bar favorite prized for its creamy texture and naturally sweet flavor. These shrimp are typically served raw to highlight their delicate, almost buttery taste. Harvested from cold northern waters. These are a premium addition to any crudo or nigiri service.

Culinary Notes:

• Flavor: Mild, clean, and sweet with a rich umami finish.

• Texture: Silky, tender, and slightly creamy—ideal for raw preparations.

• Best Uses: Nigiri, sashimi, crudo, shrimp tartare, or served with fried heads for contrast.

• Bonus: Their heads can be deep-fried for a crispy, savory bite—chef’s secret weapon for texture play.
