Fukagawa Meshi introduction

Fukagawa Meshi (深川めし, Fukagawa meshi) originated as a simple, hearty meal for fishermen in the Fukagawa area and became a staple of common folk. In the Edo period, it was traditionally made with Aoyagi clams, but in the Meiji era, ingredients like asari clams and hamaguri clams were introduced. The dish comes in two main styles: rice topped with a savory soup filled with clams, green onions, and vegetables, or as a flavorful mixed rice. Enjoy the rich, briny taste of the ocean in this standout dish!
