Hittsumi (Tono)
Hittsumi is a simple and warm local dish passed down in Tono, the village of folklore. Its name comes from the cooking method of 'hittsumu' (to tear off) the wheat dough kneaded with water using one's hands. In the Nanbu region, where cold temperatures once made rice cultivation difficult, dishes made with wheat and buckwheat flour supported people's lives. Hittsumi is one such dish. Chewy pieces of dough are simmered in a flavorful broth along with seasonal vegetables and chicken. Because it is torn by hand, it possesses an irregular and lovely texture and a smooth swallow. This bowl, which warms you to the core on a cold day, is filled with the nature and wisdom of Tono's way of life. It is the very taste of home.
