Kazamaura Monkfish
"Monkfish landed alive." This rare type of fish can be found in the Shimokita Peninsula. Kazamaura Village, located near the northernmost part of Honshu, primarily uses hand-line fishing without bait and gillnetting, which is a major feature as it allows monkfish to be landed alive. Recognized for its high freshness and Ike-jime (live-killing) techniques, it was the first monkfish in Japan to be registered as a regional collective trademark. Due to its yellowish body, it is also known as "Kiankou," and the fat from its liver is renowned for being high quality and delicious. Sashimi, where freshness is vital, is a precious dish that can only be taken in very small amounts from large monkfish. The chewy texture and subtle sweetness can only be experienced here. It is a pride of Shimokita, nurtured by the winter seas.
