This chicken tsukune, featuring enjoyable textures from the chicken cartilage, presents a hearty flavor profile. Versatile in its applications, it can be grilled with sauce or used in hot pots and stews, making it an ideal addition for various culinary styles.

Okayu Ise Yuzu Jelly

Refreshing Sweetness
