 Fishermen from Tsukuda-mura, Nishinari-gun, a country of Settsu, reclaimed the tidal flats east of the gunshot in the Sumida River, settled in Tsukuda, put fish in Edo Castle, and sold the surplus at the fish market in Nihonbashi. Tsukudani has developed the surplus fish as a preserved food for fishermen. Initially, soy sauce came in from Noda in Shimousa's country, from the manufacturing method of simmering with salt water, and it evolved into soy sauce boiled.

Tsukudani on Tsukuda Island with such a history. Until just this time, Tsukudaniya thought that Tsukudaniya was only three stores in Tsukuda, "Honke Tsukudani Tanakaya", "Genso Tsukudani Tenan", and "Tsukudani Marukyu, founded in 1859". I love the Tsukudani of these three stores because of their differences. My friend sent me valuable information. 

 

"The other day, when I was walking around Tsukuda, I was recommended by locals, but there is a new Tsukudani shop where I entered the alley on the right side toward Maruhisa!" .

Immediately, I visited the shop and investigated the "differences" between the establishment of the shop and other shops.

The shop has been producing Tsukudani since the war, mainly delivered directly to retail stores and inns, and has a history of more than 70 years.

Currently, the shop is the fourth generation, replacing his master Nobuo Kobayashi with his son Yoshihiro.

 

It was three years ago that we set up a retail store, but it was only a year ago that we placed signboards at the entrance of an alley. It seems that there are many patronages of the local people.

 

The product does not use preservatives, so it seems to have a taste period of about 3 weeks in the refrigerator.

The difference from the other three stores is that there are only one or two products of this store.

 

I took a look at the show window.

The inside of the shop is clean, organized and items are displayed.

There are also individual product groups and reasonable prices.

That's why I have purchased "Kakuri Kombu" and "Denbu", which is made by combining soy sauce and sugar with tara no Slimi. I received the change for these two items for 1,000 yen.

Immediately, I ate for breakfast, but Kakuri kelp called "This is tsukudani!" 

The slightly sweet denbu seems to be a grandchild's preference.

 

Mr. Nobuo Kobayashi, my husband, gave me a very friendly talk. That's why there are many local fans.

The address of the shop is 1-2-1 Tsukuda, Chuo-ku. Phone: 03-3531-7578.
