Kokera sushi introduction
The topped ingredients vary depending on the region. In the vicinity of Tanoura fishing port in Wakayama City, a summer festival was held to pray for a memorial service of fish and a good catch of the year. At this time, the kokera sushi is served using 'himeji' and 'eso' which can be taken from spring to summer. Himeji had to be grated on three pieces, salt and leave for a while, so he was preparing in advance when the summer festival approached.
Kokera-zushi, made in Saikazaki, Wakayama City, uses an eso soboro, which is caught in a bottom-net fishing. It is one of the hospitality dishes made by removing the head, tail, and internal organs, and grilling, and carefully removing the small bones. It is also called 'tonton zushi' because it uses a kitchen knife to make it soft.
Kokera-zushi, in Matsue, Wakayama City, is made of shrimps, Thai hogushimi, and sushi rice in layers. Also, red fish is sometimes used instead of shrimp.
In Nachikatsuura-cho, ingredients such as black beans, river shrimp, shiitake, Koya-tofu, and carrots are sprinkled. Basho leaves are used for the summer festival and the leaves of mustard are used for the autumn and New Year holidays.
The hardened sushi can be baked and eaten to taste a slightly different taste.
Wakayama City holds hands-on events such as local cuisine classes to teach local people and students how to make local dishes such as' kokera-zushi. '
