Takana-meshi (Mustard Green Rice)

Chopped Takana pickles are sautéed in oil and mixed with rice. With one mouthful, the spiciness and savory aroma spread, making you instinctively crave a second helping. This mixed rice uses aged Aso Takana, a traditional vegetable of Aso. It is said that the 'Asoji' drive-in, which was located in front of a station on the Hohi Main Line, commercialized the flavor originally made by the first owner's mother at home after opening in 1968, helping it spread as an Aso specialty. The key is the unique spiciness and aroma of the Takana that has endured the winter cold. Enjoying it as a set with Dago-jiru is the true Aso way. A soul food of Aso alongside Dago-jiru. The savory aroma of the sautéed Takana will make your stomach growl.
