Sanuki Udon (Kanonji)
In Kanonji City, famous for its massive Zenigata Sand Art, you can find many renowned Sanuki udon restaurants. What supports the udon in this region is the local 'Ibuki Iriko' harvested from the Utsumi Sea. These are anchovies caught near Ibuki Island, off the coast of Kanonji Port, which are boiled and dried. Because the eastern part of the Utsumi Sea has calm currents, it has long boasted high catches of sardines. The broth made from this high-quality iriko is characterized by a clean taste with little impurity, a fragrant aroma, and a deep umami flavor. Kanonji is, so to speak, an unsung hero town that supports the very foundation of Kagawa's udon broth. With thick, chewy noodles and a clear broth rich in iriko flavor, please come and try an authentic bowl in Kanonji, where shops range from long-established institutions to new arrivals.
