Grilled Sanma (Pacific Saury)
The sound of dripping fat and the fragrant smoke. In autumn, Onagawa is dyed entirely in the colors of sanma. Onagawa Town in Miyagi Prefecture once boasted the highest sanma landings in Honshu and was known as the 'Town of Sanma.' When autumn arrives, fresh, fatty sanma are brought one after another to the Onagawa Fish Market. The bold flavor of grilling these whole fish over charcoal is truly a seasonal hallmark of this port town. At the annual 'Onagawa Sanma Harvest Festival,' many visitors are served charcoal-grilled sanma, creating a lively atmosphere. Taking a bite of a single, seasonal, fatty fish, the scent of the sea spreads through your mouth along with the bittersweet flavor of the innards. If you visit Onagawa in autumn, this is a dish from our proud port town that you must taste.
