Iwa oysters are also farmed in Naruto, and there is a brand of Iwa oysters that is currently very popular.

The reason this oyster is so popular is that it's big and easy to eat.
This time, we will introduce Uzushio King, the fishermen who make it, and recommended ways to eat it!
Branded rock oysters “Uzushio King” from Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture
True oysters, which are in season in winter, weigh around 100g to 200g, but Uzushio King weighs 300 to 400g.
About 1.5 - 2 times!
As you can see in the photo above, it has a lot of flavor and is very thick.
These rock oysters have an excellent taste and are enjoyed by many repeat customers every year.
Koichi Etsu is the creator of this whirlpool king.
We produce "Uzushio King" with particular attention to farming methods so that you can be happy and say, "Ah, it's so big!"
Taste and size of Uzushio King (raw oyster with shell)
The biggest feature of the brand rock oysters ``Uzushio King'' is that they are ``big!!''.
Normal true oysters are about 100g to 200g, but Uzushio King is 300 to 400g. (Limited quantity of 1kg will be sold)
The taste starts off salty and gradually becomes more umami and sweet.
Although it is large in size, it has a refreshing taste.
Recommended way to eat Uzushio King as raw oysters in the shell
1. Squeeze the lemon
2. Grated autumn leaves and ponzu sauce as sashimi
You can eat it in one bite with a squeeze of lemon, but we also recommend eating it as sashimi with ponzu sauce and grated maple leaves!
Because it's a summer rock oyster, you can eat it deliciously as sashimi!
This is a way to eat true oysters in winter that is difficult to eat, so I recommend you try it during this time.

From autumn, there will also be a “Uzushio Champion”!
Uzushio Champion oysters are in season from autumn. Oysters have a hard time spawning, so their flesh becomes crunchy in the fall.
These are really delicious oysters.

Are you afraid of getting hit with an oyster?
Uzushio King branded rock oysters from Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture are harvested under strict hygiene management. Oysters are harvested in waters that have passed strict water quality inspections, and are delivered directly to you in a highly fresh state, so you can enjoy them safely and securely.
Oyster shell processing
Although oyster shells are thoroughly cleaned before being delivered, there may still be some dirt left on them.
When eating raw oysters, use a scrubbing brush to remove dirt from the oyster shells before eating, so you can enjoy them more safely.
How to shuck an oyster
Hold the knife slightly above and to the right of the center of the oyster and stab it gently.
If you hold the knife horizontally and apply too much force, the knife may slip and cause injury.
For beginners, we also recommend wearing gloves.
We also recommend cutting the tip with kitchen scissors to create a space and then inserting a knife there.
We also introduce it in the video, so we hope you will find it helpful.
