Oyster Senbei (Oyster Crackers)

These oyster crackers are unique to Hiroshima, an oyster-producing region, offering a gentle aroma of the sea. Hiroshima Prefecture boasts the highest oyster production in Japan, accounting for approximately 60% of the national total. It is truly an 'Oyster Kingdom,' far outpacing the second-place prefecture. These 'Whole Oyster Crackers' are made by luxuriously topping the dough with rich oysters raised in Hiroshima Bay and then baked. Some versions use potatoes grown in the characteristic red soil of Akiu, which pair perfectly with the briny flavor. With a crispy texture where the umami of the oyster meets the sweetness of the potato, they are perfect as both a souvenir and an accompaniment to alcohol. It is a single piece that allows you to easily take home the bounties of Hiroshima's sea.
