Tradewind Seafood, Inc

Shrimp & Crab (Shellfish)

We are the premier uni supplier in the States. We offload live sea urchins directly from our fishermen in Santa Barbara and throughout Southern California.

From our state of the art facility we process and pack the uni by hand daily.

Our premium item is the Ensui Uni. Ensui is the best way to ship and store Uni. Uni which is packed in trays first has to be treated or washed with a preservative so it can maintain its shape and rigidity. Ensui on the other hand is organic and chemical free. So what's the liquid? It's a saltwater mixture which is made to replicate the seawater where the urchin is harvested. No chemicals at all.

Using this method ensures the uni retains not only its most true flavor profile (merrior) but also allows it to maintain its natural texture and mouthfeel. It's the closest experience to shucking an urchin and eating the uni right on the water!
