About Soft-Shelled Turtle Hot Pot
Soft-shelled turtles raised in Oita Prefecture thrive in its pristine rivers and mild climate, creating the ideal breeding conditions for this prized ingredient. Known since ancient times for its health-boosting properties, soft-shelled turtle is low in fat, high in protein, and packed with vitamins, minerals, and collagen, which is said to promote beauty and skin health.
Enjoying it as Soft-Shelled Turtle Hot Pot (スッポン鍋, Suppon nabe), paired with refreshing ponzu sauce, is a must-try. For an even fuller experience, treat yourself to a complete course at specialized restaurants or inns featuring dishes like deep-fried soft-shelled turtle, sashimi, and rice porridge (zousui).
