Wajima Fugu (Pufferfish)
When you pick up a thinly sliced piece with your chopsticks, you can see the pattern of the plate through it. Once in your mouth, you experience a crisp, popping texture and an elegant sweetness that spreads with every chew—the true joy of Wajima fugu lies in this clear, lingering aftertaste. Located at the tip of the Noto Peninsula, Wajima Port has repeatedly recorded the highest catch of wild pufferfish in Japan, making it a true stronghold for fugu. Because Tiger pufferfish (Torafugu) and Maru pufferfish (Mafugu) are landed here in abundance, you can indulge in luxurious, fresh, wild-caught varieties. From thin sashimi to deep-fried pieces, and creamy milt in hot pots. If you char the fins and soak them in sake, you can also enjoy fragrant hire-zake (fin sake). It is a winter happiness that allows you to savor an entire fish to its fullest. A special delicacy delivered from Japan's premier port.
