Fresh bamboo shoots, the first thing we received in spring!

We enjoyed the flavors of spring to the fullest with bamboo shoot rice and stew.
Add bamboo shoots, carrots, dried daikon radish, and shiitake mushrooms to your rice dish!

Accompanied by simmered bamboo shoots with hijiki seaweed, carrot rapée, turnip pickled in sake lees, and red miso soup with akamoku seaweed...

Bamboo shoots grow at an incredible rate, said to grow several tens of centimetres a day.

It's an excellent source of nutrients, dietary fiber, umami, and fatigue recovery!!!

We have received a lot of energy from the young bamboo shoots, called "takenoko," which are full of life energy, and today we are taking another step forward happily, with a smile and delicious food!

With gratitude for the energizing power of bamboo shoots!
