"History that shines in the seven colors of Yagenbori" talks are held every month at 14:00 on the 28th of every month.

[Silver] December 19, 2015 09:00

 We spoke with Yuichi Kawabe of Asuka Booksellers in front of Higashi-Nihonbashi Station on the Toei Asakusa Line, who is a director of the Yagenbori Shopping Association.

 

The Yagenbori Talk Meeting is held at 14:00 on the 28th of every month, commemorating the 400th on October 28th.

 And, "Harisen", which hits the desk used to switch stories in talks, seems to be fired and memorialized at Yagenbori Fudoin on December 30 every year.

 

When I visited the Yagenbori Talk Meeting in Marugoto Museum 2015 on November 1, Higashinihombashi was at the Oki Tang Karashi store near Ryogokubashi, "Ryogoku Oki's Seven Color Tang Garashi" at the Oki Tang Karashi store near Ryogokubashi.

 Nowadays, it is common to call it "Shichimi pepper" nationwide, but it is common to call it "Shichimi pepper".

It is said that in 1625, "Yagenbori" Nakajima Shoten devised Shichimi pepper in Yagenbori.

At first, it was called "Nanairo Tongarashi", and Yagenbori also pronounced "Yakenbori", and the column "Yagenbori is the birthplace of Shichimi peppers!" It is described in this article.

And "Seven-colored pepper" was presented to the general of the time, Tokugawa Iemitsu in 1625, and he was very pleased.

In Yagenbori, chili peppers are called seven colors instead of seven tastes. Just as the “Non-no-ichi” will be held from December 27 to 29, so please enjoy it together with shopping.
