Seven Crimson Daimyo Crab
Prepared using daimyo crabs from the northwestern inner sea, 'Battle Crab' as it is called is a complicated dish to serve. First a pair of live crabs must be imported to the restaurant, kept in large glass tanks of water with their deadly pincers bound. On the day of the meal, the two crabs are prodded to fight each other; with pincers free the daimyo crab can still take hours until one stands triumphant. The battle-hardened crab is rewarded with drowning in butter followed by a boiling bath in sugarcane rum or beer. With small amounts of salt and vinegar added to bring out flavors of victory for the Dynastic palate, though true connoisseurs claim it is not true Battle Crab unless someone died trying to catch it during their deadly migrations down the ice flows of Water season.
