Kincho Taro (Tunmu)
Kincho Town is known as the number one production area for Tunmu (taro) in Okinawa. Tunmu is a type of taro grown in flooded rice paddies. Kincho, blessed with abundant spring water, provides the perfect land for its cultivation. It features a sticky texture and a gentle sweetness, and processed goods like taro pies, taro chips, and Dengaku (skewered miso-glazed taro) are also gaining popularity. Because the small tubers grow around the main root, it is considered a symbol of prosperity and is an essential ingredient in New Year's and celebratory dishes. Tunmu has long supported the Okinawan dining table since ancient times. Within its simple and warm flavor lies the quiet wisdom of island life.
