Marumori Bamboo Shoots
As the mountains of spring awaken, fresh and succulent bamboo shoots emerge from the bamboo groves of Marumori Town. In the Kono district of Marumori, Miyagi Prefecture, the area has long been known as a production center for bamboo shoots, with production cooperatives working to brand them while maintaining high quality. They adhere to strict standards, refusing to ship anything that is more than a day old or fails to meet their criteria. The morning-harvested shoots boast a flesh so tender and low in bitterness that they can be boiled without removing the astringency, thinly sliced, and enjoyed like sashimi with wasabi soy sauce. There are many ways to enjoy them, including simmered dishes, tempura, and mixed rice (takikomi gohan). The shipping season is short, lasting only until mid-May, making it a flavor available only right now. Please enjoy this bounty from the mountains of Marumori that heralds the arrival of spring.
