Rencon Hasami Age (Deep-Fried Lotus Root with Shrimp)

Prepared with shrimp paste delicately stuffed between slices of lotus root and fried to perfection, this dish features a crispy exterior and a fluffy texture inside. It can be used directly after natural thawing, making it an excellent choice for appetizers, side dishes, or bento box ingredients. Topping it with sweet vinegar or black vinegar sauce, along with condiments, expands the menu possibilities even further.

Margo Yuhiki (Blanched Japanese Fugu)

This refined dish features domestic fugu coated in starch and blanched for a delicate taste. It can be enjoyed straight after thawing, accompanied by ponzu sauce or momiji oroshi, and can be utilized in salads, carpaccio, clear soups, or tea dishes. It is particularly recommended for seasonal menus from autumn to winter.

Yuzu Pepper Matsukaze with Domestic Chicken

Using over 60% domestic chicken, this dish combines the unique flavor of yuzu pepper, offering a balanced spicy kick with a refreshing aftertaste. Designed to fit elegantly in a traditional osechi arrangement, it is easy to serve by just cutting into portions—a true convenience for festive occasions.

Matsumae-zuke with Mountain Wasabi

Aged in refrigeration for four days for rich flavor, this Matsumae-zuke features Hokkaido mountain wasabi for a harmonious balance of spiciness and refreshing flavor. Generous portions of herring roe add a delightful crunch, making it an excellent choice throughout the year.

Salt-Koji Grilled Hokkaido Cod

Using Hokkaido-sourced cod, this dish is marinated in a special salt-koji seasoning for about two days before being grilled to perfection. It retains a moist texture and rich umami even when cooled, making it an exquisite addition to any osechi platter.

Fried Mochi (Isobe) in Pack of 3

With a crispy exterior and chewy interior, this fried mochi is coated in a savory sweet sauce for delightful flavor. It maintains its deliciousness even when cooled, making it perfect for snacking or as a quick bite.
