Ikemoto Foods' brand story began with a deep respect for the rich nature of Iwakuni City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, and the food ingredient "Iwakuni lotus root" that has been loved by locals. Since our founding, we have valued the desire to "deliver the blessings of nature to the table as it is" and have been working to create products that make use of local ingredients.
Iwakuni lotus root is a specialty product known for its soft, crispy flesh and nine-hole lucky charm. The desire to let more people know about its charm and to deliver health and smiles through daily meals was the trigger for the launch of the brand.
 
In addition, modern dining tables are required to be "safe and secure" and "sustainable". Ikemoto Foods uses carefully selected ingredients such as domestic wheat, locally grown lotus root, Okinawan salt, and Hiroshima oyster flakes, and is particular about a manufacturing method that uses as few additives or preservatives as possible. The noodles made without using buckwheat flour or canned water and are allergy-friendly, are also the result of aiming for a table that the whole family can enjoy with peace of mind.
 
What we want to achieve is not just "deliciousness", but also the inheritance of a sustainable food culture that values local traditions and natural cycles. Through original products that make use of local ingredients, such as Iwakuni lotus root noodles, meat miso, and Japanese-style curry, we would like to convey the climate and warmth of Iwakuni to the whole country and the world. We will continue to propose a rich life that connects people through food and coexists with nature.

What are we doing?

Based on the concept of "tasting the blessings of nature," Ikemoto Foods offers a wide range of original products, including Iwakuni lotus root noodles, traditional seasonings from Yamaguchi and Iwakuni, and ingredients for commercial use. In order to realize the brand's worldview, the first thing we value is the selection of materials and the commitment to manufacturing methods. Iwakuni lotus root noodles are additive-free noodles made with only domestic wheat, Iwakuni lotus root powder, Okinawan salt, and Hiroshima oyster gara, and do not use buckwheat flour or brine water. In a noodle factory that is allergy-friendly and does not handle soba, craftsmen spend 60 hours slowly aging and drying it.
 
In addition, Iwakuni Lotus Root Meat Miso uses more than 33% locally produced lotus root, and domestic minced pork is boiled once and then stir-fried to reduce greasy content and take advantage of the original flavor and texture of the ingredients. It is also characterized by the fact that it is made with domestic ingredients such as gochujang, yuzu, ginger, and green chili peppers, without the use of chemical seasonings or preservatives.
The difficulty in creating the product was to maximize the characteristics of the ingredients while maintaining both preservation and ease of use. For example, we have repeatedly made prototypes to reproduce the crispy and crispy feeling of lotus root in retorts and processed products. We are also actively working to contribute to the SDGs and local communities, such as collaborating with local farmers and selling "products with a cause" to reduce food loss.
 
Ikemoto Foods aims for a sustainable food future through safe, secure, and delicious products that combine tradition and innovation.

Commitment to the product

Ikemoto Foods' products are packed with the gentleness of natural ingredients and a commitment to local traditions. Among them, the main product, "Iwakuni Lotus Root Noodles," is additive-free noodles made only with domestic wheat, Iwakuni lotus root powder, Okinawan salt, and Hiroshima oyster noodles. It is made using a method that is allergy-friendly without using buckwheat flour or canned water, and is slowly aged and dried by craftsmen for 60 hours. It features a soba noodle color and a smooth and chewy texture, making it a perfect choice for any Japanese, Western, or Chinese soup, making it ideal for home dining as well as gifts and gifts. The noodles do not stretch easily and do not melt easily, so you can easily enjoy the deliciousness even in your busy daily life.
 
Another popular product, "Iwakuni Lotus Root Meat Miso," uses more than 33% locally grown lotus root, and domestic minced pork is boiled once and then stir-fried to reduce the greasy content and take advantage of the original flavor and crispiness of the ingredients. There are four types of gochujang, yuzu, ginger, and green chili peppers, and all are finished with domestic ingredients without chemical seasonings or preservatives. It is attractive for its versatility that can be arranged in a variety of dishes, such as rice accompaniments, vegetable sticks, tofu, pasta, and more. Customers have commented that "the rice goes better" and "children can eat with peace of mind."
 
In addition, "Iwakuni lotus root lotus leaf tea" is a caffeine-free tea made from Iwakuni lotus root leaves. With its gentle aroma and smooth mouthfeel, it is perfect for relaxation time or before bed. It is also popular that it is a tea bag type that can be easily enjoyed. These products aim to maximize the quality of the materials and bring the blessings and warmth of nature to our daily lives.
