Ooi Venison
Starting from wildlife damage control, evolving into a local flavor. This is gibier cuisine from the Nadasho area of Ooi Town. In the deep mountains of Nadasho, long before the term 'gibier' became widespread, wild boar botan-nabe (hot pot) has been enjoyed as a seasonal winter delicacy. Captured deer and wild boar are carefully processed locally and served at traditional inns and restaurants. The venison is packed with the umami of lean meat, is low in odor, and is healthy—a true blessing unique to this mountain village. Since ancient times, deer have been referred to as 'Momiji' (maple) and wild boar as 'Botan' (peony). Even when used in rice bowls or curry, the rich umami of the lean meat stands out. This is a dish you can savor through the reliable techniques of renowned local establishments, tasting the mountain bounty where the wisdom of ancestors lives on.
