Ikeda Gibier

Born from wildlife damage control measures, it has now become a local specialty. These are deer and wild boar dishes from the 'Gibier Town of Ikeda.' Bordering Gifu Prefecture, Ikeda Town is a land blessed with deep mountain nature. The mountains are home to many deer and wild boars, which were once a source of concern due to damage to agricultural crops. Consequently, an initiative has spread to locally butcher and process the captured animals, utilizing them as fresh gibier. The savory flavor of the wild, lean meat is a taste unique to this region. This represents the wisdom and ingenuity of Ikeda Town, turning a local problem into a regional treasure. The richness of the fat combined with the firm lean meat is exceptional when used in stews or hot pots. It is a deeply nourishing mountain delicacy that one wishes to savor while expressing gratitude for the life being received.
