Ito's Dried Fish (Himono)

When grilled to a golden brown, a fragrant steam rises softly. As you pick it up with your chopsticks, the juices seep from the plump flesh. Taking a single bite, the concentrated umami makes you want to eat bowl after bowl of rice. Ito is a town of dried fish, with shops lined up along the coast. Known as a hot spring resort, dried fish is a staple even for breakfast at local inns. Fresh fish caught on the same day is slowly dried by the sea breeze and sunlight. The drying process firms the flesh and intensifies the savory flavor. Being able to taste it freshly grilled right in front of the shop is a pleasure unique to Ito. From classic horse mackerel to splendid splendid alfonsino, the variety makes choosing just as much of a treat. Please enjoy a freshly grilled piece for your breakfast.
