Ajigasawa Grilled Squid
Along the coast, dried squid are lined up like white curtains—this is the scenery of Ajigasawa's famous 'Yaki-ika Street.' Along the old highway, shops line the street, grilling and selling semi-dried squid on the spot. It is said that this land, which is easily exposed to the sea breeze of the Sea of Japan, is precisely why such mineral-rich dried squid can be produced. They take great care to use squid sourced from Aomori Prefecture, drying them while they are at peak freshness. Many people find themselves pulling their cars over, lured by the savory aroma of grilled squid. The flavor is a concentrated, rich umami achieved through slow drying. It is a preserved food of the Sea of Japan that makes for a wonderful souvenir. It is a simple yet unforgettable taste of the sea, unique to Ajigasawa.
