“The Gold Rush of the Conger Eel World Is Here!!”

ナナメ上↗︎上天草 Products “The Gold Rush of the Conger Eel World Is Here!!”

In Kamiamakusa's Oyano Town, blessed with an abundance of seafood, there is an ingredient that is attracting a considerable amount of attention. The name of this ingredient is "Golden Conger Eel". Why is the conger eel caught in the fishing grounds sandwiched between the Ariake Sea and the Yatsushiro Sea called this? The answer lies in its beauty.

Rich in high-quality fat, the bodies of these conger eels are distinguished by having beautiful skin that shines in a golden color. Its golden shine sets it apart from other conger eels at a glance. The delicate flesh of conger eels light in taste but rich in umami, has long been prized as a luxury ingredient in the summer. Even professional chefs are impressed by the tastiness of these conger eels that can only be raised in Kamiamakusa.

Preparing daggertooth pike conger by finely cutting up its small bones was considered a highly skilled craft. It required complex techniques, so it was very difficult to cook at home. However, in recent years, this process has been automated. This has meant that pre-prepared conger eels are now sold in local product shops. This is a dish that will truly exceed (NANAME-UE) your expectations! You can now easily enjoy the exquisite taste of Kamiamakusa. Why not add a touch of elegance to your dining table with some Golden Conger Eels this summer?
