[Sanma] The pride of Nemuro, the town of sanma—a bounty of the season. Melting fat and a vivid umami.
This is nigiri sushi made with exceptionally fresh Pacific Saury, just landed here in our local Nemuro, one of Japan’s foremost sanma fishing ports.
Its glistening silver skin is proof of its vitality. With a single bite, its abundant, high-quality fat spreads as if melting throughout your mouth, as a rich umami and sweetness rush in.
A firm texture in the flesh and a rich, lingering flavor—sensations that can only be experienced thanks to its freshness.
The condiment of grated ginger (or chopped green onion) adds a refreshing sharpness that enhances the umami of the fat and completes the overall flavor.
This is the pinnacle of the season’s bounty, an experience you can only have in this place, at this time. Please, savor the taste that is the pride of Nemuro to your heart’s content.
