MARUHIDE MARINE PRODUCTS
Our factory is the premier Santa Barbara uni supplier to Michelin chefs, restaurants, smaller distributors, and home chefs.

Most of the uni you will find in the U.S. isn't fresh because the product sits on a shelf for a long time. Additionally, the uni can pass through multiple retailers before you consume it, resulting in a fishy taste. Only fresh sea urchin retains its ideal sweet flavor, color, and buttery texture.

Our expert divers harvest the wild sea urchins and bring them to our facility. We start by cracking the sea urchins early in the morning. Maruhide's masters carefully select the best uni, pack to order, and ship on the same day it's processed.

We're passionate about serving you the best uni the ocean offers.

WHICH UNI SHOULD I ORDER?
Our A+ uni exceeds expectations for uni enthusiasts and premium grade uni is used in Michelin restaurants. We recommend purchasing any in-stock uni and salt-water (ensui) if your order will be shipped. Please check back often as fresh uni sells out daily. Uni Shutou is a popular alternative to our fresh uni

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN CUTS?
Larger Steaks
The larger striploin/ribeye steaks are about 3/4" thick and ideal for larger parties.

4oz Steaks
4oz steaks will vary in size - see each product listing for details. The thicker 4oz steaks are ideal for sushi, nigiri, and yakiniku.

WHAT IS A5 WAGYU?
A5 is a Japanese grading term for the highest yield and meat quality grades.

WHAT IS BMS?
Beef marble score (BMS) measures the amount of intramuscular fat (marbling). A5 ranges from BMS 8 to 12. BMS 8 is similar to fatty tuna, and BMS 12 is similar to extra-fatty tuna. We specialize in sourcing the highest BMS 12, which accounts for less than 5% of A5 Japanese wagyu.

GENETICS
By law, wagyu in Japan are Fullblood (100% wagyu genetics) with no cross-breeding. Fullblood wagyu has a low melting point of around 78°F, resulting in the famous melt-in-your-mouth experience.

300+ WAGYU BRANDS
Like wine, each brand/region of wagyu will be distinct from the others. Farms will differ in genetics, animal husbandry, environment, and diet. Learn the differences by tasting different Japanese brands as a wagyu flight.
