This flavorful hot pot highlights two local treasures—the renowned Koshigaya green onions and duck meat inspired by the Imperial Household Saitama Wild Duck Preserve.

Born from a grand hot pot event at the 2005 Koshigaya Industry Festival, this dish has since become a cherished symbol of Koshigaya's culinary identity.

What sets the Koshigaya Duck and Green Onion Hot Pot apart is its soy sauce-based broth, featuring carefully selected, safe, and high-quality duck meat. It also showcases the versatility of Koshigaya green onions, which are prepared in two styles: simmered for a tender sweetness and grilled for a smoky, robust flavor. Grown using traditional methods dating back to the Edo period, these onions are celebrated for their thick, sweet, and aromatic qualities, whether cooked or grilled.

This comforting dish is available at numerous restaurants throughout Koshigaya, with each establishment offering its own unique spin on the recipe. For those who want to enjoy it at home, seasonal gift sets are also available, making it easy to prepare this authentic taste in your own kitchen.
