🍱 Usuyaki

It is made by spreading a thin layer of Flour, dissolved in water and topping with Green onions, Red ginger, “Sakura” shrimps, “Tenkasu”,” Nori” (seaweed), etc., then baking it on the pan. It is sometimes served rolled up. The texture is springy, and the flavor of “Sakura” shrimp and Red ginger add a nice accent. Sold at stalls during festivals and New Year's visits to Hachiman-gu Shrine, “Sasaki's Usuyaki” is especially famous. There are several stalls on Hachiman-dori Street, and the sight of them grilling at a fast tempo is a tradition at festivals. Other than that, there are only a few stores that sell "Usuyaki" all the time, and since it is popular within a small area of the city, it is not well known outside Morioka City, even within the prefecture.
