Hunar SetuHunar Setu is a social initiative that connects skilled artisans and craftsmen with buyers, businesses, and communities that value their work. India’s artisans carry centuries of tradition, culture, and craftsmanship, but many of them struggle to access markets, technology, and fair opportunities. Hunar Setu was created to bridge this gap.https://www.hunarsetu.com/s/62ea2c599d1398fa16dbae0a/676523772eb3cf19c22b9674/hunarsetu1-logo-1--480x480.png

6ab76a1b758a5f84b2eeea10Fresh Ukabi
Ukabi is the local Manipuri name for the climbing perch (Anabas testudineus), a popular freshwater air-breathing fish native to South and Southeast Asia.
Key Facts About Ukabi Fish
Scientific Name: Anabas testudineus.
Habitat: Found in slow-moving or stagnant freshwaters like ponds, swamps, marshes, canals, wetlands, and flooded paddy fields.
Special Trait: It has an accessory respiratory organ that lets it breathe air, making it extremely hardy and capable of surviving out of water for short periods or living in low-oxygen environments.
Culinary Status: Highly prized in Manipuri cuisine for its rich, delicious taste and distinct flavor. It is commonly prepared fresh as a crispy Ukabi Fish Fry, added to traditional spicy vegetable mashes like Eronba, or cooked in local curries.
Conservation & Farming: Wild populations in Manipur have declined over the decades due to environmental changes, pesticides, and overfishing. To meet local demand, farmers have turned to pond culture and introduced hardier strains (such as Vietnamese koi) for sustainable local production.
