Stone-Cooked Dish
A culinary delight from Oga that captivates the eyes, ears, and taste buds
Stone-Cooked Dish introduction
Stone-Cooked Dish (石焼料理, Ishiyaki Ryori) has its roots in the traditional fishing culture of Oga, Akita Prefecture, and is a cherished local specialty. This hearty dish is a miso-based hot pot brimming with fresh seafood caught nearby and seasonal vegetables. What makes it truly unique is its fascinating cooking method. The ingredients and broth are placed into a wooden bucket pot made of Akita cedar, and then heated stones are added directly to the pot to bring the contents to a boil. Using these hot stones to rapidly heat the dish helps to seal in the deep, rich flavors of the ingredients better than by conventional simmering. It's a truly sensory culinary experience, blending tradition and flavor.
