Wakasagi Tsukudani (Simmered Smelt)
This tsukudani is carefully simmered using smelt caught in Hachirogata. Smelt lose their freshness easily, and to produce a high-quality product, they must be processed within 2 to 3 hours of being caught. Therefore, the 'raw-simmering method' preserved by this long-established shop, founded in 1897, is a technique that can only be realized at the fishing site. By simmering them raw without pre-boiling, the umami is tightly concentrated within the small fish. The lack of odor and the retention of the natural ingredient flavor are unique characteristics of Hachirogata smelt. Its sweet and savory flavor is perfect as an accompaniment to warm rice or as a snack with tea. It is a nutritious dish packed with the blessings of Hachirogata.
