Takehara Bamboo Shoots
If you visit Takehara in the spring, the bamboo shoots unique to this 'city of bamboo' are a must-try. It is said that the bamboo groves in Takehara City began about 250 years ago when they were planted for disaster prevention purposes. In areas such as the Kobuki district, bamboo groves are still carefully maintained by hand—cutting old bamboo and managing the groves to ensure easy growth. Bamboo shoots grown with such painstaking care are renowned for being tender and having little bitterness. Freshly harvested shoots are characterized by their low astringency and juicy texture. Whether prepared as sashimi, tempura, or wakatake-ni (simmered bamboo shoots and seaweed), the fragrance of spring will gently rise. Please enjoy the full essence of spring, unique to Takehara, the city of bamboo.
