Pink Spiny Lobster

The fisherman calls it Deep-sea Lobster. Why? It inhabits between 150 and 400 m. At these depths, the absence of light makes the colour of its shell much lighter, in opposition to the brown lobster, that lives in shallow depths and closer to the shores, giving it a more intense pigmentation. Among the gastronomes it is not unanimous, but it is believed that there are noticeable differences in the taste between both. White or brown, the important is the freshness!
