Yoshiike Musui Kaki (Undiluted Oysters) (for raw consumption)
The content has been revised accordingly.
I love oysters like no other.
I like oysters no matter how they are cooked, such as steamed, grilled, or fried, but I overwhelmingly like eating them raw.
However, if you eat raw oysters at a restaurant such as an izakaya or oyster bar, it will cost more than 500 yen each, so if you eat as much as you want, your wallet will be hit first. .
In addition, oysters sold raw at supermarkets are cheaper than eating them at the store, at around 300 to 500 yen per pack, but the taste is bland and the smell is strong, making it hard to imagine eating as much as you want. .
I want to eat raw oysters cheaply and deliciously. .
The one that satisfies that desire is ``Yoshiike Musui Kaki (Undiluted Oysters) (for raw consumption)”.
It's cheaper than eating it at the store, and because no fresh water is used, the oysters have a strong flavor that is completely different from those sold at supermarkets.
Until now, it was only sold in the winter, but I heard that it was now available in the summer, so I bought it.
The winter version is produced in Sanriku, and the year-round version is produced in Akkeshi, Hokkaido.
Also, the winter version is a little more expensive at 1 pack (160g) for 850 yen (when purchased in March 2024), and the year-round version is 1 pack (120g) for 1,180 yen.
If I could eat Musui Kaki (Undiluted Oysters) all year round, I would buy it even if it was a little expensive.
actual food
Just to be sure, I washed it lightly with water and served it, or rather, just put it on a plate.
There were 6 in 1 pack.
This time I will have it with ponzu sauce.
I think you can tell from the appearance that it's plump.
As for the taste, there is no odor at all, and the taste is quite creamy.
The word rich is exactly right.
Personally, I might like it better than the winter version.
Imayo Tsukasa Sake Brewery Vintage 2011
This time's drink is ``Imayo Tsukasa Sake Brewery Vintage 2011”.
This is an aged sake made by storing Nihonshu (Sake) in a tank for 10 years.
You can see that the color is a little yellowish.
It is a very rich cup.
This time I had it cold (at room temperature), but aged sake is also delicious even when warmed.
I think white wine goes well with oysters, but I personally prefer Nihonshu (Sake).
Impressions
In conclusion, there will be repeats.
One pack costs 1,180 yen, and there are 6 pieces, so each pack costs about 200 yen.
The taste is comparable to raw oysters eaten at restaurants, so if you can eat them easily, I think it's a good deal and cost-effective.
Since the oysters themselves are of high quality, I thought it would be better to simply eat them raw with seasonings such as ponzu sauce, rather than pasteurizing them and cooking them.
『Yoshiike Pond' has stores in Okachimachi and Akasaka, so please visit there to purchase.
Raw oysters with shells are also sold at Yoshiike Pond.
True oysters cost 200 to 500 yen each, and rock oysters cost 500 to 1,000 yen each, making them cheaper than eating at a restaurant.
If you ask at the time of purchase, they will cut a hole in the shell, and all you have to do is open the shell at home, so you can easily enjoy oysters in the shell at home.
In this way, Yoshiike has become a restaurant that satisfies all the desires of oyster lovers.
If you like oysters, go to Yoshiike.
