Hakodate Gome Kombu Senbei
With a crispy, light texture and a gentle aroma of the sea, the unique umami of Gome Kombu spreads with every bite. It is a unique rice cracker that can only be tasted in Hakodate. The ingredient used is the rare "Gome Kombu," which grows only in the waters near Hakodate and its surroundings. It earned its name from the basket-like textured pattern on its surface. It is characterized by a particularly strong viscosity among kelp varieties due to its high mucilage content, which serves as a thickening agent. While it was once often overlooked because it was harvested alongside Ma-kombu, it is now one of Hakodate's most iconic seafood treasures. A single cracker that captures the crispy essence of local blessings, truly unique to Hakodate.
