In the landlocked region of Shinshu, nutrient-rich carp is essential for celebrations. It's simmered in a sweet and savory sauce, making it enjoyable even for children without the typical carp taste.
Origin of this recipe
I learned this from my mother-in-law. In Shinshu, it's an indispensable dish for special occasions like autumn festivals, weddings, or memorials. Many people prefer eating the innards over the flesh.
