Omoro

Pork trotters coated in a sweet and savory sauce, grilled to perfection over charcoal—featuring a melting gelatinous texture and a fragrant char. This is 'Omoro,' a beloved dish in Enshu, Iwata. 'Omoro' is an old name used in the Enshu region to refer to pork trotters. It is a local specialty of Iwata where pre-processed trotters are simmered in a sweet and savory mixture of sugar and soy sauce, then served either with vinegared miso or grilled on the surface. Rich in collagen, it offers a surprisingly light taste despite its appearance. In recent years, 'Omoro Curry,' which utilizes this unique flavor, has also become popular as a local specialty for regional revitalization. A melting texture and a lingering umami flavor make this a pride of Iwata, perfect as an accompaniment to alcohol.
