Umi Budou (Sea Grapes)
The moment you put it in your mouth, the tiny bubbles burst with a pop. The aroma of the sea and a subtle saltiness spread through your palate, making it feel as though you are tasting a jewel from the ocean. It is called 'Umi Budou' (Sea Grapes) because the small granules grow densely together like clusters of grapes. Its formal Japanese name is Kubirezuta, which comes from the constriction between the stem and the small branches. Due to its beauty, it is also referred to in English as 'green caviar.' While originally a seaweed that grows in the shallow waters of Okinawa and the Southwestern Islands, it is said that the Onna Village Fisheries Cooperative introduced land-based aquaculture technology around 1094. Today, it has become a major aquaculture product, following mozuku and Kuruma prawns. Please enjoy its popping texture dipped in sanbaizu.
