I'm Setsubun on February third. This year, some shrines in Chuo-ku will host bean-throwing ceremony for the first time in three years. We look forward to the full-fledged arrival of spring in the news of the resumption of festivals and events that have come to be heard a little by little.

In addition to these news, I have a secret look forward to this time. That's Ehomaki.

The custom of wrapping rolled sushi on the day of Setsubun was not familiar to the Showa era of the Kanto region, but it has spread throughout the country and is now fully established as a feature of February.

Thanks to that, when Setsubun is near, the convenience store that takes care of every day has more luxurious thick rolls than usual hand-rolled sushi. Because it is delicious and has food, it is a product that I personally want you to sell throughout the year.

The other day, my eyes were nailed to a flyer at Seven-Eleven, the largest convenience store industry. It is said that this year's Ehomaki is supervised by Ginza Kubei.

The items supervised by specialty stores sold by convenience stores and supermarkets are different from the taste of the main store, but since the major companies have developed over time and the famous stores have given a passing point, they are affordable but not disappointed, and especially those supervised by shops in Chuo-ku are often purchased.

Ginza Kubei, which has its main store on Kinharu-dori in Ginza 8-chome, is a sushi restaurant founded in 1935. It is a long-established store that also knows the name even by Class B correspondents, and it is familiar to Chuo-ku fans that it is introduced as the birthplace of sushi in Uni in the `` Chuo-ku First Story Map '' issued by the Chuo-ku Tourism Association . You can get Ehomaki supervised by Ginza Kubei at your usual convenience store. The flyer has the word "Limited quantity". I made a reservation at once with a little jump. What a convenient store!

Ginza Kubei Auditor Shuei Homaki is based on Ginza Kubei's popular product, "Taimaki", so the ingredients are "Yakianako". Shari uses the same vinegar as the vinegar that Ginza Kubei has been using for three generations. A gem that contains plump "tamagoyaki" and "prawn" and "how much". When I made a reservation, the clerk at Seven-Eleven also said, "It was delicious if I tasted it." I'm looking forward to this.

Please take a look at the secret story of development that is only open to the public now during the reservation period.
