VENICE, ITALY - APRIL 2018.
Emiliano, a 'Molecante', fisherman of the 'Moeche', explains his work to tourists in his fishing area with 'vieri', wooden boxes where the fisherman checks the state of the crabs, during the fishing tour of the 'Moeche' in the northern lagoon of Venice, on April 2018.
Moeca is the name that the Venetians give to the crab that is in the moulting phase (spring and autumn), when it loses its shell and becomes very tender and almost soft. Fried moeche is a typical delicacy of Venetian cuisine. © Simone Padovani
