　　“Zhakou Crayfish” are plump in shape, with small heads and pointed tails, featuring two thick and robust front claws. The overall color is light bright red, with clean white gills. The astaxanthin content per individual is higher than that of crayfish from other regions. The meat is high in protein and rich in trace elements such as iron, iodine, and selenium. Thanks to the clean and unpolluted water in the production area, the “Zhakou Crayfish” have clean and transparent bellies, an overall light bright red hue without blackening, and vibrant coloration. The gills are white and odorless. Coupled with the century-old unique Zhakou crayfish curing technique, they are delicious and uniquely flavorful, highly favored by consumers and considered a signature delicacy of Zhakou Town.
