About Bungo Beppu Bay Chirimen
Bungo Beppu Bay Chirimen (豊後別府湾ちりめん) is made from fresh baby sardines, a gift from the natural bounty of Beppu Bay.
Hiji Town has long been known for its thriving shirasu (baby sardine) fishing industry. These delicate fish are sun-dried to create "chirimen," a local specialty that is shipped across Japan. While chirimen is rich in calcium and typically enjoyed dried, you can also savor the unique taste of freshly caught "nama chirimen" (raw baby sardines), bursting with the refreshing essence of the ocean.
