Wakame and aosa nori tsukudani
Ref : NISYSS007
Tsukudani is a traditional Japanese delicacy. In its simplest form, it consists of seaweed slowly simmered in soy sauce and mirin or sugar. More elaborate versions are made with fish, meat, shellfish, mushrooms...
Tsukudani has two roots behind its name. “Tsukuda” comes from Tsukudajima (Chuo, present-day Tokyo). During the Edo period, this island was the first to produce this food. Second word is “Ni”, meaning “to boil”. But Japanese people know Tsukudani meaning as “food preserved and boiled in soy sauce”.
In Japan, it's the perfect condiment to accompany white rice. Tsukudani originated on the island of Tsukuda, Tokyo Prefecture, during the Edo era (1603-1868). Tsukuda owes its reputation to its links with the samurai class and shōgunate himself. Tsukudani is said to have been made famous by Leyasu Tokugawa, Edo shogunate’s first shogun.
