Onomichi Iida-ko Yaki
A truly bold piece that lets you taste the entire sea of Onomichi. This is a large rice cracker where whole baby octopus (iida-ko) caught in the Seto Inland Sea is placed on the batter and pressed to be baked to a fragrant perfection. The batter is kneaded with bonito flakes and sesame seeds, so the more you chew, the more the umami of the octopus and the seaside flavor of the Seto Inland Sea spreads through your mouth. It is a unique souvenir that reflects the character of Onomichi—a town of hills and sea—that is hard to find elsewhere. The crispy texture and strong dashi flavor pair perfectly not only with tea but also as an accompaniment to alcohol. Please take a bite while feeling the breeze of this seaside town. The memories of your Seto Inland Sea journey will suddenly come flooding back.
