Eel Steamed in a Bamboo Basket (Okawa)
Okawa, known as a town of furniture, has its own prideful specialty alongside its neighbor, Yanagawa: Eel Seiro-mushi. This cooking method, unique to the Chikugo region, involves placing kabayaki and shredded egg over rice seasoned with sauce and steaming it in a bamboo basket until fluffy. Steaming prevents the dish from cooling down quickly, allowing you to enjoy the rice thoroughly soaked in the deliciousness of the eel while it is still piping hot until the very last bite. With one bite, the tender eel meat and the fragrant aroma of the sauce rush in. Please take your time in Okawa to savor this multi-layered happiness—fluffy, hot, and prepared with great care.
