Women divers for awabi(abalone) carefully harvest Shima’s natural awabi one by one. Awabi is a byword for exclusive cuisine. There are various ways of serving the awabi, but simple raw awabi and baked raw awabi are exquisite.
“Anori-fugu”(tiger puffer fish) is striped tiger puffer fish, a type weighing more than 700 g that is caught in Enshu-nada, Isewan Bay and Kumano-nada.
