Multiple types of seafood broth are layered in the mix. For the salt seasoning, "Yakiago" prepared using Takahashi's unique method is used, combining broth extracted at two different temperatures with salt from Okinawa. The refined and delicious flavor of the premium ingredient "Yakiago" is a highlight.
