Trails to Tsukiji: 3x17

Hamo

Hamo is an essential Kyoto summer delicacy. Behind the intimidating, dinosaur-like face is a fish with subtle and delicate flavors. Known for its vitality, hamo is also said to be a great source of energy, helping people overcome the hot and humid summer season in Kyoto. On this episode, we visit a small island to do some night hamo fishing and partake in some delicious hamo dishes, from classical Kyoto cuisine to cutting edge Italian.
