New Special Bento Featuring Freshly Caught Bonito from Yaizu

Introducing a Delightful New Bento!

The culinary landscape of bento in Japan is about to become even more exciting with the launch of a special item from Origin Tohsu Co., Ltd. They are releasing a limited edition bento box featuring the exquisite 'Tataki' style bonito, caught using the one-hook method off the coast of Yaizu. With the addition of refreshing domestic yuzu ponzu, this dish is a summer essential that promises to tantalize your taste buds.

What is Bonito Tataki?

Tataki refers to a culinary technique where fish is quickly seared, then chilled and thinly sliced, highlighting its fresh flavors. In this bento, Origin Tohsu exclusively utilizes freshly caught bonito from Yaizu, ensuring a top-notch seafood experience. Each piece is meticulously hand-cut, allowing for an authentic taste of this coveted fish.

Accompaniments and Flavors

Every bento comes complete with crisp onion slices and a dash of fresh grated ginger, enhancing the overall flavor profile. Topping it all off is the yuzu ponzu sauce, made with the juice of domestic yuzu citrus, which injects a delightful zing that perfectly complements the rich umami of the bonito. This combination is not only a visual delight but also a refreshing option for those looking for something light during the warmer months.
