When it comes to pickles from Shinshu, nozawana is well known, but in southern Shinshu, gensuke kabuna pickles are cherished.
Gensuke kabuna becomes sweeter and more flavorful after exposure to frost.
As the cold grows harsher at this time of year, Toyooka Village has entered the ideal harvesting season for gensuke kabuna.
Toyooka Tabi Jikan offers hands-on harvesting experiences for gensuke kabuna.
We also provide pickling recipes.
For details about the experience, please visit the Toyooka Tabi Jikan website.
The program is scheduled to run from around November 25th to December 20th, ending once supplies run out.
