Last night, the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters (hereafter referred to as "Nichi-Ham") won the Pacific League championship for the first time in four years. For me, who usually follow the Central League, it was a huge upset that made me wonder, "When did they catch up to us? I was wondering when they caught up to the Central League. This is why professional baseball is so interesting.

To commemorate the victory, Nippon Ham will hold a "Fighters' Pacific League Championship Sale" for three days from today (September 29) at supermarkets, department stores, grocery stores, and other stores nationwide. Eight items, including the well-known pork sausage "Schaussen," "Saari Kitchen Roast Ham," and "Ishigama Kobo Margherita Pizza," will be sold at sale prices.


By the way, how do you usually eat Chiawesen? According to the company's website, the "best way" to eat chiawesen is to boil it for three golden minutes.

All you have to do is bring a pot of water to a boil, and when it comes to a boil, boil the chiawesen for three minutes over low heat. The skin will become tight as the umami ingredients and fat blend together, allowing you to enjoy the crispy, light texture of the skin. To avoid missing out on the juices, use chopsticks instead of a fork or knife when eating the fish.



I personally love ham, so I am happy to enjoy a ham bowl instead of a roast beef bowl at a more reasonable price than usual. After taking a break from delicious meat, the Climax Series will finally begin in October. Summer for baseball fans is not over yet.
