Gamagori Clams

When you lift the lid of the pot, a gentle steam with the scent of the ocean wafts up from the clams as they pop their shells open. As you bring the plump, fleshy meat to your mouth, the savory umami of the sea bursts forth. These are thick-fleshed clams nurtured by Mikawa Bay. Facing Gamagori, Mikawa Bay is a blessed sea where mineral-rich water flowing from the Toyogawa River and high-quality sand create tidal flats, allowing clams to grow freely. From the peak season in spring through early summer, they become large and plump with meat. Steamed with sake allows you to taste the pure essence of the shellfish broth. In miso soup, a single sip will warm your entire body. The simpler the preparation, the more this umami stands out. Please enjoy the full flavor of spring in Mikawa Bay.
