Sasa Kamaboko (Bamboo Leaf-shaped Fish Cake)

Take a bite of the beautifully toasted surface. After an initial springy texture, the elegant umami of white fish gently spreads through your palate. The bamboo leaf shape feels incredibly refreshing. It is said that Sasa Kamaboko was born in the middle of the Meint era in Sendai. At that time, there were continuous large catches of flounder from Yuragi to Kinkasan, but due to a lack of preservation facilities, it is said that the surplus fish was processed into surimi and grilled. Later, during the Showa era, it was named 'Sasa Kamaboko' after the 'bamboo' in the Date clan's family crest, 'Sparrow on Bamboo,' and became established as a Sendai specialty. The aroma of freshly grilled kamaboko is exceptional. Serving as the face of Miyagi, it is a perfect companion for both souvenirs and evening drinks.
