Nagato Whale Cuisine
Nagato City is a town with a long history of whaling. The culture of eating whale, which has evolved alongside the bounties of the Sea of Japan, continues to be cherished today. Various dishes using whale meat, such as whale sashimi, Tatsuta-age (deep-fried marinated whale), and whale soup, have been enjoyed locally for generations. Enjoying the different flavors depending on the part of the whale is a pleasure unique to this land that knows whale inside and out. The lean red meat is light and refreshing, while the skin parts are rich and savory, each possessing its own distinct character. These dishes can be considered symbols of Nagato's food culture, lived in close harmony with the sea. We invite you to savor these inherited traditional flavors while reflecting on the history of traditional whaling.
