A new market opened in Toyosu, Tokyo in October 2018. It is crowded with domestic and foreign tourists, but it is quite difficult to make fresh produce as a souvenir.

Therefore, the editorial department noticed Maruha Nichiro, who has the same headquarters in Toyosu. Did you know that the company, which boasts a history of more than 130 years as a fishery and food manufacturer, wants to convey the charm of fish from Toyosu, and that the "Toyosu Outer Series" has been launched this fall?


Currently, two types of hot pot soup and bottled sauce are on sale, and can be purchased at the company's antenna shop and online shop. I was curious, so I tried it immediately!

■ Rich seafood stock! Hot pot soup


A hot pot soup that you can enjoy a seafood hot pot with water and your favorite ingredients. You can choose from two types, "red sea bream dashi hot pot soup" and "shrimp dashi hot pot soup". The price is 500 yen each (excluding tax, the same applies below).


The taste of seafood is so rich that you can imagine the image just by including either of the soup in your mouth! In particular, the red sea bream broth was so delicious that all the ingredients were wrapped in the elegant flavor of the sea bream, and even the porridge of the sea bream was so delicious that you wouldn't want to leave a single drop.


The shrimp broth, which has a pronounced aroma of shrimp, contains tomatoes, so it can be used for Western-style arrangements such as pot-au-feu and bouillabaisse-style soup. It seems that the taste of the pot is a little different, but I wonder if it is irresistible for shrimp lovers.

The second in the series, "Kaki no Bagna Cauda Sauce" and "Shirasu Basil Sauce," have been on sale since October. The price is 500 yen each.

Bagna cauda sauce is made by boiling Hiroshima oysters in milk and white wine to make a paste, which makes the oysters feel luxurious. It's delicious that vegetables won't stop.


Shirasu basil sauce is a sauce made from domestically produced shirasu, basil, garlic, and parmesan cheese. It is an exaggeration to say that Basil and Shirasu complement each other and are the highest peak of Genovese. Caprese sauce, pasta, and seafood carpaccio sauce can be used for hospitality with confidence.


There is no doubt that you will be pleased with the special products that are different from the company's familiar mackerel cans and saury cans as souvenirs. Be sure to check it out when you visit Toyosu Market! * There is actually no area called "outside Toyosu"
