🍱 Saba no Jau

This is a "sukiyaki"-like hotpot simmered mackerel, seasonal vegetables like Japanese leek and napa cabbage, and grilled tofu, and prepared by fishers in towns with fishing harbors in Tajima region. Mackerel was used in Takeno area in Toyooka City because they caught lots of small mackerels. On the other hand, "Jau" was cooked with fish they could not sell in markets, "hatahata" (=Japanese sandfish) or "Yama-garei" (a type of flatfish) in other area like Kami Town.
