Longtooth Grouper from Gobo
Dip a plump, bouncy slice into a bubbling hot pot. As the translucent flesh quickly turns white and blooms—bring it to your mouth, and the elegant, savory richness of the fat spreads across your palate. Longtooth grouper is a luxury fish known as 'the phantom fish.' Because it takes many years to grow and is difficult to catch, encountering one is truly special. The broth, enriched by the essence from the bones and trimmings, is so deep and flavorful that you'll want to drink every last drop. All that savory goodness melts into the final rice porridge (zosui). The season is from autumn to winter. At restaurants around the Gobo area, you can enjoy an entire fish, from sashimi to hot pot. It is a truly luxurious dish that you'll crave during the cold season.
