Hagi Kamaboko
As you take a bite, a plump elasticity is followed by a gentle spread of clean, sweet fish flavor. With a light golden color on the surface, you can enjoy a subtle toasted aroma—this is Hagi's traditional 'Yakinuki Kamaboko' (baked-through kamaboko). The star ingredient is the 'eso' (lizardfish), raised in the rough waves of the Sea of Japan. It possesses a rich umami and is considered a top-tier ingredient for kamaboko. The 'yakinuki' method—where surimi is spread on a board and slowly baked with low heat from underneath—creates that unique elasticity and soft mouthfeel. It is perfect enjoyed as is with wasabi soy sauce, or paired with alcohol. It holds its shape well whether simmered or grilled, providing an elegant flavor to dishes like oden or clear soups. It is a masterpiece of surimi products that Hagi is proud of.
