Fresh raw whitebait (fished in Enshu Nada and Suruga Bay) caught at Omaezaki Fishing Port in Shizuoka Prefecture is auctioned off by our middleman, Yamasei Fisheries, and processed into folded sardines.
Shirasu chips, originally folded sardines.
Tatami sardines (tatami sardines) are made by washing fresh raw sardine fry, straining them raw with a fine-grained net attached to a wooden frame, draining the water, and then turning them over on top of the sardine. Food that has been dried in a dryer for about 6~7 hours and processed into thin plates (nets).
Nowadays, it is a specialty product mainly made in the coastal areas of Shizuoka and Kanagawa, and it is a product that is the "blessing of the sea" itself. Food that allows you to directly feel the "flavor of the tide" and "the flavor of fish".
The way to eat folded sardines is very simple. Quickly roast it over an open flame and use it as a snack for sake.
Shirasu chips eliminate the trouble of roasting and can be eaten as they are.
It is also delicious with miso paste or mayonnaise sprinkled with chili peppers.
It is also recommended to put the whitebait chips on top of the rice as it is, add a little soy sauce and soak it in tea.
Also, grease the bread with butter, put seaweed and whitebait chips on top, and add a little soy sauce at the end. The flavor of whitebait is mixed with the aroma, which perfectly matches the buttered bread.
In addition, with olive oil and wine......
A little blue cheese on top of whitebait chips, Scotch whiskey, etc. are also delicious.
Even if you put it on top of a salad.

The hotel's chef's arrangement of whitebait chips and boiled potatoes is lightly oven-baked, with french fries and whitebait chips entwined, and it is exquisite!
