Exciting New Ehōmaki Launch at Kirari Sushi
Kirari Sushi, part of I.M.M. Food Service, will unveil an exclusive Ehōmaki on February 3, 2026, coinciding with the Japanese festival of Setsubun. Known for using fresh seafood from the Sea of Japan, this year’s offering features a luxurious mix of 11 premium ingredients including fresh tuna and red snow crab, with the exciting addition of eel.
A Culinary Tradition
Ehōmaki is traditionally eaten silently while facing the year’s auspicious direction to attract good fortune. For 2026, the lucky direction is south-southeast. Kirari Sushi’s Ehōmaki is a beloved seasonal staple, drawing in many enthusiastic customers each year. The combination of high-quality seafood in this sushi roll offers both exceptional flavor and a visually stunning presentation, making it the perfect dish for celebrating this significant day.
A Luxurious Recipe
The specially crafted Ehōmaki contains an exquisite selection of seafood: fresh tuna, red snow crab, yellowtail, shrimp, eel, salmon roe, herring roe, egg, shiso leaves, cucumber, and kanpyō. This year, the addition of eel enhances the overall taste profile, delivering an even richer and more layered experience as each component is brought together in one roll.
Dedicated buyers at Kirari visit nearby fishing ports daily to select only the freshest seafood available. This commitment to quality makes each bite enjoyable, with the flavors and textures working harmoniously. The traditional ingredients balance well, providing a variety of textures which accentuate the overall tasting experience.
Perfect for All Ages
In addition to the standard full-size roll, a half-size option is available, making it ideal for children or those with smaller appetites. The elegantly designed packaging symbolizes the arrival of spring, making it a wonderful gift for loved ones or a delightful treat for oneself.
Pre-orders for the Ehōmaki start on January 19, 2026. While they will be available on the day, we recommend reserving ahead of time to ensure you receive this unique dining experience.
A Blend of Tradition and Craftsmanship
Kirari Sushi is dedicated to combining freshness, flavor, and aesthetics. It brings authentic sushi experiences in a convenient conveyor-belt format. The rich bounty of the Sea of Japan ensures a wide range of seasonal seafood options. The chefs at Kirari take pride in handcrafting each piece of sushi, allowing the natural flavors of the fish to shine.
Using locally-sourced soy sauce, each serving enhances the sushi experience, making every bite memorable. Furthermore, the traditional Kutani porcelain dishes provided add an artistic touch to each meal, showcasing the beauty of Kanazawa’s culture.
Enjoying this delicious Ehōmaki at Kirari is more than just a meal; it's a celebration of craftsmanship and seasonal produce.
