HOSHIGAI NORI TSUKUDANI

Nori Tsukudani with Dried Hokkaido Scallop

A Rare Marriage of Ocean Depth and Artisan Craft

Savour the refined depth of Japan’s northern seas with our Nori Tsukudani with Dried Hokkaido Scallop — a gourmet interpretation of a beloved traditional condiment, elevated with premium ingredients and meticulous craftsmanship.

At the heart of this creation lies tender Japanese nori seaweed, simmered slowly in a traditional soy, mirin, and kelp reduction. This slow-cooked process, known as tsukudani, concentrates natural umami and gently draws out the sweetness and complexity of each ingredient. Infused into this rich paste is the dried Hokkaido scallop (hotate), prized for its intense umami, natural sweetness, and layered oceanic aroma, developed through careful drying and aging in the cool northern air of Hokkaido.

The result is a thick, glossy condiment with a luxurious mouthfeel and a deep, lingering flavour profile — simultaneously briny, savoury, and slightly sweet, with bursts of scallop richness in every bite. It’s a harmonious balance of texture and taste, designed to enhance the most delicate or comforting of dishes.

Enjoy it spooned over hot steamed rice, congee, or soft-boiled eggs; pair it with tofu or fresh sashimi; or use it as an umami-packed finishing touch to elevate your culinary creations.

Crafted with no preservatives, no artificial flavouring, and no MSG.

Just the essence of ocean and tradition, captured in every jar.
