What Is Awaji Island Pike Perch!?
Awaji Island Hamo (Japanese conger eel)
Hyogo Prefecture boasts one of the largest catches of hamo in Japan. On Awaji Island, this traditional food is especially delicious from around June to September each year. The seabed in the waters near Numajima, the main fishing ground of Minami Awaji, is said to be dolorous and soft sand, and the skin on the belly is said to be thin and soft without abrasion. The Naruto Straits keep the meat tight, the fast currents supply fresh water to the seabed, and the abundance of crustaceans and fish that serve as bait help to nurture the meat quality, richness, and color of the hamo to its best quality. In particular, the hamo are caught one by one by longline fishing in the waters around Numajima, so there are few blemishes on the fish, which has earned them the brand name of "hamo hamo (pike conger)! The hamo with a small head and plump body is highly valued by local chefs for its soft skin and rich fat.
