"Umenoya" only works on overnight drying. All of them are manufactured in our own factory.
Overnight dried and dried fish. Both are made by opening and drying fish, but they are similar but different. In contrast to "sun-dried" dried fish that are exposed to sunlight, overnight drying is dried with cold air to mature the umami. The good thing about drying overnight is that it leaves a lot of moisture and the fish fat does not oxidize easily.You can taste the soft texture just like raw fishIt is.

Skilled craftsmen carefully place the fish on the net one by one according to the condition of the fish, and check the condition of the fish with their hands and eyes while it is in the cold air dryer. Even if they are the same fish species, they are different in size and fat. In order to make the fish in the best condition suitable for it, it is important to have a sense of "hand" and an "eye" to discern.
