Kani=Crab and Miso=brain. But actually these are not crab brains. I often wondered how the hell you managed to get so much brain from a little crab. The answer is, of course, you can&#8217;t. Apparently (and not surprisingly) crab brains are quite small.  Kani Miso appears to be anything within a crab which is not good wholesome white crab meat. That apart, I love the stuff. I can consume vast quantities of that dark, deep sea tasting, mush and often do, given the opportunity. I gained the nick name kani-miso in my old band here because of my passion for it.<\/p>\n<p>Had an odd experience the other day though. Had lobster-miso which I&#8217;ve never seen before (even Akemi couldn&#8217;t remember seeing it before). It&#8217;s similar to kani-miso but has a less full taste. As a lot of people find kani-miso a little powerful this might be a thing to look for if you&#8217;re after something a little more delicate.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s one other good thing about kani-miso (well, it has a positive aspect). You can buy it in cans which means my mother in law will sometimes ship some back to me. Kani-misi and a pint of english beer.
