I bought some items from Rakuten sites. Since I purchase anything
after detailed investigation, most of them satisfied me. I'd like
you to introduce good items I can recommend.
The first one is Shio-kara. What is Shio-kara? In general, it's kind
of raw fish food. Famous one is squid. After cutting squid, part
are soaked with the liver, kind of sake (alcohol), some seasoning
and so on. It fits any alcohol and rice.
Regarding other variation, octopus, tuna, bonito, sea urchin, salmon
roe etc. There are a lot of shio-kara shops. Today I pick "Chinmi-ya"
up among them. "Chinmi-ya" means shop that sells unusual and good food.
If you are a biginner of shio-kara or want to try to taste various
shio-kara, I recommend you to purchase the following set of shio-kara.
I've already puchase it twice. In fact, I ate it with beer last night.
Once you know the good taste, you can never forget it. However, it may
be difficult for someone who cannot eat raw fish to enjoy the food.
Even if you cannot eat it, you can expect your Japanse friends to enjoy it
certainly.
