Takahama specialty “five-colored shellfish”
Five-colored shellfish introduction
It is a “cypress scallop (cypress scallop)” with vivid colors such as yellow, orange, purple, brown, and red.
The name comes from the fact that it resembles an aristocrat fan from the Heian period. The vibrant colors are natural.
It is a very rare shellfish, and it is rare to see it, and it is a valuable shellfish. They live in warm waters and are vulnerable to low salinity, so areas where aquaculture can be cultivated are limited.
Uchiura Bay in Takahama Town is one of the few enemy areas. About 5,000 pieces are shipped each year, and they are said to be delicious in early summer and early fall.
It is glossy, thick, and has a soft, melt-in-your-mouth sweetness and richness.
There are inns and restaurants in Takahama where you can eat at this time of year.
Please enjoy the colored seafood.
