This time it is a super-harakuchi junmai from Hitakami.
I made oden with octopus from Sanriku,
I wanted to open a bottle of Hidakami that goes well with fish and shellfish.
This super dry junmai is made with Hitomebore sake.
At room temperature.
The top aroma is modest, but it has a sweet aroma.
It has a mild mouthfeel.
The soft, full-bodied sweetness and umami spread quietly, with a calm acidity and bitterness that is crisp and clean.
When heated, the flavor profile becomes even clearer and the sake tastes great warmed up.
Oh, it's so good! A sake to keep on hand!
It's labeled "super dry,
I thought it would have a spiciness to it, but it didn't.
I thought it would be a bit spicy,
But it is a slightly dry sake with a mildly umami taste.
As one would expect from Hitakami,
I wanted to eat sashimi after taking a sip.
I would like to eat sashimi after drinking one sip.
Let's have some sashimi later 💕.
Oden and hot sake, happiness 😊.

Good evening, Hirupeko-san!
I just enjoyed Oden and hot sake the other day myself 😋.
I'm going to try a lot of heated sake this season 🤔.
I'm jealous of octopus in oden in my hometown 😁.

Good evening, Mr. Jive. What style of oden will be this time, octopus and chikuwabu? We usually don't put octopus because it's too expensive, but beef tendon is a must. Of course we also add thick fried tofu 💕Oden with hot sake 🍢😆🍶.

Good evening, Mamio. I want another bottle of Hidakami ultra-harsh Junmai, it's so good! I don't think I've ever heard of chikuwabu, it's a hard food to explain. My partner is also from Kansai, but he learned about it when he lived in Tokyo and now it's his favorite food.

Hi Hirupeco, good evening 😁.
I bet the hikakomi and 🍢🐙 are delicious.
We can't miss the chikuwabu at my house too.
When I made salmon roe soaked in soy sauce, it was delicious with hikakami 😋.

Hi Hirupeko 😃.
Hidakami seems to be an ironclad pairing with seafood after all 🤤Oden 🐙 is the best ☺️
Chikuwabu is a dish that many people outside of Kanto might not know 🤔It has a unique texture, so it's not to everyone's liking.

Good evening, Rutemi. I see that the Rutemi family is also a chikuwabu group 🍢I'm kinda glad💕I've never made my own salmon roe in soy sauce, I'd like to make one with hidakami in it 😊.
