■Aizu Jidori Dashi-maki Tamago
Aizu Jidori chicken lays only about half as many eggs as regular chickens, so the yolk ratio is higher, concentrating the egg's natural richness and flavor.

Nishin Tempura
In Aizu, which is surrounded by mountains, "kiriboshi nishin", a dried, long-lasting food, was a valuable source of protein. Even today, nishin is still eaten pickled in sansho (Japanese pepper) from spring to summer, when sansho (Japanese pepper) sprouts, and is made into a fluffy tempura with no odor so that even women can easily eat it.
