Every day at Tsukiji Market is "Limited Items"

[Apricot peony] June 1, 2012 08:30

You can buy the same item anytime and anywhere - it's very thankful for consumers.
However, you can buy items that can only be obtained there that day-I'm also happy.
If you say so, it may be considered "limited products" such as brand products and sweets, but if you think carefully, most of the fresh foods are affected by various conditions such as weather.
You shouldn't have the same thing as yesterday today.

In particular, the market is a place where such changes can be clearly understood, and the goods you want are not available or unexpected.
There are always unexpected discoveries, and Mainichi is Wonderland with only limited itemshappy02.


The other day, after a long time, when I went to Tsukiji Market's "place", there was something unexpected.
It's "Salmon Halas Skewer"sign01

Salmon Halas, along with tuna jojo meat and kama, has become quite common, but I saw the skewer for the first time.
When I looked at the signboard of the shop, I was supposed to specialize in eels, turtles, etc., so did you come up with the idea of "stabbing on skewers"?
When I grilled it with the grill at home, it was really delicious as if it were yakitori.
However, the shopman said, "Today is just a moment, and it's not always always there!"
This is exactly a limited itemscissors.


And I was able to get the most important item "Law Puna Butts".
I was a little late, so I was worried that the store I always went to was closed, but he said, "I'm busy today and I don't have much time to subdivide into a pack, so I'm just going to put it out right now."sign03


Yes, in Tsukiji's market, "You can get good items if you go quickly" is a big mistake if you only say "Shiroto".sign01

Early hours serve professional cooks and regular customers, so the shoppers are full of hands.
From around 9 o'clock, those people retreat, and from 9:30 to 10 o'clock, they take a break.
In the past, it was closed as it was, so after 11 o'clock it was rattled, but recently the number of general customers and tourists has increased, so the number of shops operating until near noon has increased.
Therefore, half-finish items of the day can be subdivided into packs for 2-3 people, or what was sold in units of 1 kg can be from 100g.
Sometimes there are items that have been canceled, and the price is the legal fish shore, and the shop says, "I can't bring it because I can't afford it."

In addition to the two points, I bought this day, dried saury from Shishamo and Ofunato, smoked duck, and shumai.

Everyone, because they went to the place that day, they only bought them.


When I return home and put the items I bought in the refrigerator, it may be a bit exaggerated, but "I'm glad I met something really good today."
Thank you to everyone involved in these items. "
