Awayuki Fuwari - Charred Shotturu Flavor

This is a unique treat that transforms the flavor of 'Shotturu,' a traditional Akita seasoning, into a fluffy meringue confection as light as fallen snow. Shotturu is a fish sauce made by aging fish such as sandfish (hatahato) with salt over a long period, and it is counted as one of Japan's three major fish sauces. As the gentle sweetness of the meringue crumbles in your mouth, the savory aroma of charred grains and the subtle saltiness of Shotturu overlap. This unexpected combination of sweet and salty creates a mysteriously addictive deliciousness. It is a fun confectionery expression of Akita's unique ingredients. This is a new type of sweet that allows you to enjoy Akita's deep fermentation culture with a sense of playfulness. Please try it—it makes for a great conversation starter.
