Longtooth Grouper (Owase)
Have you ever heard of a white-fleshed fish known as a 'phantom luxury fish'? It is the Longtooth Grouper from Owase. While wild specimens are rarely caught due to their large size, the waters of Owase—with its deeply indented rias coastline and calm waves—are perfect for aquaculture. With a history of farming dating back to around 1985, Mie Prefecture boasts the largest production of Longtooth Grouper in Japan. The flesh is rich in collagen and has a firm, chewy texture. Even when heated, it holds its shape well; its translucent, elegant white flesh can take center stage in any cuisine, whether Japanese, Western, or Chinese. With its bouncy elasticity and sweetness that spreads with every bite, adding just a single piece to a winter hot pot makes the dining table feel instantly luxurious.
