Ise-imo from Taki Town
With a rugged appearance resembling a clenched fist, this is the Ise-imo, a traditional vegetable that Taki Town is proud of. It is a type of Tsukune-imo that has been cultivated for over 300 years, primarily in the Tsuda district of Taki Town, since the mid-Edo period. It was formerly known as "Tsuda-imo" or "Matsusaka-imo," and was named "Ise-imo" during the Meiji era. It is counted as one of Mie's traditional vegetables. It boasts very little astringency and features a rich, deep flavor with some of the strongest stickiness among all varieties of mountain yams. When grated into tororo, its deliciousness makes it impossible to stop eating. Please enjoy this nutritious yam, which is also used as a binding agent in Japanese confectionery. In addition to tororo rice, it can be used in okonomiyaki or as a binder for sweets. Please enjoy this traditional potato, passed down for 300 years, in various forms.
