Oshinuki Sushi
Sawara is a fish of spring. It is also a season word to express spring in haiku. The sea of Seto becomes busy for sawara harvest when broad beans grow and wheat becomes to ripen. During this season, farm households in Sanuki buy sawara, make plenty of sawara dishes and invite friends and relatives. The main character of these dishes is oshinuki sushi. The custom where a young bride brings a sawara back to her parent’s home, make oshinuki sushi and brings it back to her new home continues in some parts of the prefecture.
