The shell is strong, leathery and equipped with spines, there are five swimming appendages, and the large tail fans out. Obviously, the most distinctive feature is the color, a bright, shiny red, synonymous with quality and freshness! In Andalusia it is a very popular and widely used food: nutritionally, the calorie intake is quite low, not even 100 calories per 100 gr of product, with little fat and a good amount of protein.

A fun fact about the Carabinero
The name may create some ambiguity with the Spanish armed forces of the 19th century, however, the connection with the police does exist.
