The acidity of natural fermentation and the crunchy texture of bamboo shoots expand the range of dishes.
We use "young bamboo" harvested as part of bamboo forest maintenance, and all the staff at our own processing plant cut it. Since it is naturally fermented only with lactic acid bacteria possessed by bamboo shoots while using pH control without using additives, you can enjoy a gentle acidity without odor.
The retail product lineup includes three types of local flavor menma, which is a combination of local ingredients.
"Menmacho My Setouchi Lemon," a "little new menma" made with plenty of Setouchi lemon and soaked in olive oil, "Menmacho Chili Pepper vs Garlic Spicy Flavor," and "Menmacho Ginger vs Pepper Rich Umami" with plenty of Ibuki iriko and kelp in Setouchi.
Unseasoned menma (fermented bamboo shoots) is also available in commercial sizes so that it can be used in various dishes.
Mengzong bamboo, which is the raw material of menmacho, has a different texture from hemp bamboo, which is the raw material of imported menma, so we also offer rectangular cuts where you can enjoy the texture.
If you want to eat menma alone, we recommend a rectangular cut that you can enjoy the texture, and if you use it for cooking such as stir-frying, we recommend a strip cut type that is easy to soak in the flavor.
Season with your favorite seasonings, flavored vegetables, spices, etc., and enjoy the original noodles.
