About Oku-Kuji Shamo Yakitori
Oku-Kuji Shamo (奥久慈しゃも, Oku-Kuji shamo) refers to a special breed of chicken raised in the lush, mountainous regions of Oku-Kuji in northern Ibaraki Prefecture.
"Shamo," originally bred as a game bird, has firm, lean meat with a delightful chew, and its rich, deep flavor is truly distinctive. This delicacy can be enjoyed in various ways, including grilled as yakitori, cooked in hot pots, or as crispy karaage (Japanese-style fried chicken).
