Fukaya Negi (Fukaya Green Onion)
When the white part is cooked until tender, a burst of sweet juice overflows the moment you bite into it. Its sugar content is comparable to that of a mandarin orange—Fukaya Negi is Saitama's pride, becoming even sweeter as winter approaches. They are grown in Fukaya City, which boasts the highest production volume of green onions in Japan. The fine fibers are soft, and once peeled, the white roots shine beautifully and long. The seasonal 'autumn/winter negi' begins to appear around December. As they endure the cold, they store sweetness within their flesh, growing into exceptional specimens during their peak season from December to February. It is said that onions harvested on particularly freezing mornings are the sweetest. Whether in hot pots, grilled, or in sukiyaki, please enjoy that mellow sweetness by cooking them slowly until they melt in your mouth.
