Sea urchins are invertebrates that live in the shallow waters of the ocean, and their bodies are covered with spines, like a small hedgehog. The edible part of sea urchin is sea urchin yellow, which is rich in protein, amino acids, lecithin, riboflavin and a variety of vitamins.
Choosing sea urchins: When we buy sea urchins, we generally buy them individually, and when we choose, we should pick the heavier ones for fresher, and the sea urchins with short and thick spines are generally fatter, and the fresh sea urchins have plump mouths and slightly protruding feelings. If the mouth of the sea urchin has sunken and the color has become darker, it means that the sea urchin is not fresh, and if the yellow of the sea urchin has melted into soup and has a fishy smell, it is recommended not to buy it at any price.
