Hirame (Flounder) from Hirado
The king of white-fleshed fish that Hirado boasts in winter is the Hirado Hirame. Wild flounder raised amidst the rough waves of the Genkai Sea features firm flesh and a characteristic translucent, elegant whiteness. During the cold season, 'Kan-hiramed' becomes particularly fatty; when served as sashimi or thin slices, its sweetness and texture are exceptional, making it a true protagonist of winter flavors. Every year in winter, the 'Hirado Hirame Festival' is held, where local restaurants compete to offer creative flounder dishes, attracting many visitors. An elegant sweetness spreads after a crunchy texture. A dish enjoyed in the seaside castle town of Hirado will surely become an unforgettable winter feast. Please take the opportunity during the peak winter season to fully enjoy the bounties of the Hirado sea.
