Chef’s Recipe: Aji no Hiraki Takikomi Gohan
With Aji no Hiraki as very first product, it all started at Hokkai Suisan. The refined taste of the dried horse mackerel makes it our most popular product to this day. Chef Ohtawara shows how to prepare our signature fish in a very easy and tasty way in his recipe for Aji no Hiraki Takikomi Gohan (one-pot rice dish).
Hokkai & Friends
In our search for authentic and traditional Japanese products, we at Hokkai Suisan have established partnerships with exceptional suppliers over the years. Through our shared passion for Japanese food culture, we have become friends. We think it’s time to introduce these friends to you and that’s why we are presenting the Hokkai & Friends section.
Recipes with mackerel
With mackerel you can make all kind of dishes. We dry, salt and marinate the fish according to authentic Japanese preparation methods, resulting in delicious fish products. Our home chefs and chef Ohtawara prepared dishes with their favourite mackerel product.
