Fresh and delightfully firm fugu you can enjoy year-round

About Oita Fugu

Oita Fugu (大分ふぐ, Oita fugu) thrives in the Bungo Channel, where the waters are teeming with abalone and turban shells, the fugu's favorite foods. The swift currents of the Kuroshio Current help to create firm and flavorful fish.

The fugu raised in Usuki are particularly renowned for their exceptional taste. With minimal resting time after preparation, the meat remains vibrantly fresh. This results in slightly thicker slices, offering a natural sweetness and a delightful texture.

Indulge in the subtle sweetness and irresistible chewiness of thinly sliced fugu sashimi, or explore the versatility of fugu with dishes like hot pot (fugu chiri), crispy deep-fried fugu, or comforting fugu porridge. Each preparation showcases the many ways to enjoy this delicacy.
