Mogami Town Asparagus
These green asparagus are a proud specialty grown with the full support of Mogami Town in Yamagata Prefecture. The area is known as one of the leading production sites in the prefecture. Located in the northeast of the Mogami region, Mogami Town is a hilly area that remains cool even in summer. Utilizing the local climate characterized by the cold northeasterly winds known as 'Yamase,' asparagus cultivation has expanded as an alternative crop to rice farming. The pure snowmelt water and the significant temperature difference between day and night allow the thick, sweet asparagus to grow slowly and develop their flavor. Simply grilling or boiling them brings out a burst of freshness and intense sweetness. With fans across the country, it is a beloved vegetable for spring seasonal ordering.
