Hokuei no Nebarikko

When grated, the stickiness is so intense that it can be lifted with chopsticks. A single sip reveals a chewy texture followed by a subtle sweetness and rich flavor. This is 'Nebarikko,' an original long yam variety of Tottori grown in the sandy lands of Hokuei Town. 'Nebarikko' was developed at a Tottori Prefecture experimental station by crossing the Dune Long Yam with the highly viscous Ichoui Yam. It is smaller and less prone to breaking than conventional long yams, with a dense flesh. Its charm lies in its low astringency, making it easy to eat even raw. The sandy soil unique to this region supports this deliciousness. The classic way to enjoy it is pouring tororo over piping hot rice. Please try using your chopsticks to experience the powerful stickiness for yourself.
