Fish Sambai
Fish sambai is usually the best side dish that does with a drinker during summer festivals. It is an original dish which people can eat all the bones of the small fish. They can be preserved for long also. Small fish such as aji (mackerel), mamakari (Japanese sardinella), kisugo, tanago (Japanese bitterling), and nebakochi are grilled and immersed in sambaizu (vinegar, mirin and soy sauce). Aji is a kind of migratory fish that come into the Setonaikai Sea during summer and autumn. Small ajis of 15cm long are at best season in autumn. Freshly grilled aji with ginger soy sauce is very good, but fresh sambaizu is even better.
