Let's learn how to cook fish from an artisan!
You will borrow a real knife, which is usually used by artisans, and open 5 pieces of horse mackerel.
At first, you may not be familiar with the technique, but you will feel like a craftsman when the artisan compliments you in the Susaki dialect, saying "jondaja (you are good at it).
Carefully and carefully...the knife is smoothly inserted along the bone so that the fish meat does not fall apart, and when it is cleanly opened, it is a very pleasant feeling.
Finally, carefully remove the blood from the fish using a toothbrush in the water.
Once the five horse mackerels have been opened, you will have a few hours to dry these and take them home as souvenirs.
You will enjoy Hoei's special dried fish over a charcoal fire!
Around a charcoal fire, we will grill Hoei's special dried fish in a net.
In addition to dried fish, there will be onigiri (rice balls), fisherman's soup, and other seasonal seafood and dishes specially prepared by Tsuchiya-san depending on the day.
Time flies when you talk to Mr. Tsuchiya about the dishes, Susaki, Shimoda, and more while enjoying the delicious food.
Susaki is the kitchen of Shimoda. Susaki is a treasure island.
He says, "Suzaki is a treasure island, because even if you don't buy anything, you can catch some kind of seafood in the sea.
Note that the general public is not allowed to take marine products without fishing rights.
The following is a summary of the seafood seasonal schedule:
January-February: iwanori seaweed
February-March: wakame seaweed
April-May: hijiki seaweed
May-August: sea urchin, tokobushi, abalone, turban shell, tenugusa
October-April: lobster
If the timing is right, you may be able to taste the seasonal ingredients at that time at "dried fish ho'ei".
Dried Fish Hoei" run by a couple
He grew up in a family of fishermen, and despite many twists and turns, Mr. Tsuchiya himself became a fisherman himself.
He is a craftsman who pushes himself to the limit in everything he does, and the many processed products he makes with his completely original recipes go beyond the realm of a dried fish shop.
His wife, Sawae, is also a native of Shimoda.
The two met in Shimoda, started a dried fish shop, and have been running "Dried Fish Hoei" as a couple for 25 years now.
Their many smoked products are handmade from their own smokehouse, their "Aburi-Sanma Sushi" sold for a limited time only, and their "Steamed Sea Bream with Cherry Blossoms" inspired by the taste of Kyoto's ryotei (traditional Japanese-style restaurants).
The Tsuchiya couple is famous locally for their culinary skills, and they have many deep-rooted fans among tourists.
He often expresses his wish that "as many people as possible know and eat the bounty of the sea in Susaki."
He often expresses this wish.
The bounty of the sea, in season, carefully, carefully.... We will eat it.
At Dried Fish Hoei, you can experience a different kind of "experience" from that of so-called tourist attractions: a sense of gratitude to nature and the appreciation of eating seasonal foods.
Please come to "Dried Fish Hoei" in Shimoda and Susaki.
