Hatoshi
With a single bite, you experience the savory bread followed by the springy shrimp paste. The heat of being freshly fried and its delicious flavor make you reach for another piece. The name 'Hatoshi' comes from the Cantonese 'Ha To Si' (Shrimp Toast). It is said that 'Ha' refers to shrimp and 'To Si' refers to toast. This dish is believed to have been brought to Nagasaki from China during the Meiji era. Originally a dish in Shippoku cuisine, served around a round table, it is now a local specialty easily purchased on street corners. It is a dish that makes you realize how something as simple as sandwiching shrimp in bread and frying it can be so delicious.
