Makurazaki Bonito Cuisine
Fresh bonito dishes are indispensable when talking about Makurazaki, the town of bonito. Makurazaki Port boasts one of the highest volumes of bonito landings in the country. Furthermore, it boasts the largest production of bonito flakes (katsuobushi) in Japan, with dozens of processing plants lined up in the city producing massive amounts of flakes daily. You can enjoy fatty bonito as tataki or sashimi, but a specialty is also 'Binta cuisine,' a hearty local dish made by salt-boiling the fish head. 'Binta' means 'head' in Kagoshima dialect, and it has been enjoyed as a hospitality dish since ancient times. The meat is simmered until even the bones are soft, thoroughly infused with savory flavor. Experience the freshness unique to a fishing port and the food culture nurtured by the men of the sea. Please enjoy the profound depth of bonito that can only be encountered in Makurazaki.
