Ebimimo of Tondabayashi

A premium ingredient from Tondabayashi, whose shrimp-like curved shape is considered auspicious. 'Ebimimo of Tondabayashi' is a type of colocasia (taro) that earned its name because its curved shape and striped surface resemble a shrimp. In 2023, it became the first agricultural product in Osaka Prefecture to be registered under the Geographical Indication (GI) system, where the national government guarantees its quality and origin. You can enjoy two different textures in one: the curved part is fine and creamy, while the swollen part is fluffy. Its elegant flavor is highly valued by traditional restaurants in Kyoto and Tokyo, and it is exceptional when simmered slowly in dashi broth. You can enjoy a smooth mouthfeel, a fluffy texture, and the gentle sweetness unique to taro. Due to its auspicious shape resembling a shrimp, it is perfect for New Year's celebrations and special occasions. It is Tondabayashi's pride, a delicacy that adds splendor to celebratory days.
