Tekone Sushi
The red meat of bonito marinated in soy sauce rests upon glossy sushi rice. When mixed and eaten, the sweet and salty flavor of the marinade and the umami of the fish rush over your palate all at once. Tekone Sushi is a fisherman's dish from the Ise and Shima regions. It is said to have originated when fishermen catching bonito via pole-and-line would fillet them on board, marinate them in soy sauce, and quickly mix it with rice to eat. The name is said to derive from the fact that busy fishermen ate it by mixing it with their hands as if kneading it. Today, it has been selected as one of the 100 Local Dishes of Agricultural, Mountain, and Fishing Villages, and was certified as a '100-Year Food' in 2022. The flavor is like the hearty spirit of the men of the sea captured in a single dish.
