From the Edo Period onwards, hamaguri have always been a delicacy. Don’t forget to try this delicacy at one of the many restaurants in the city.

A sweet and salty dish made by cooking Hamaguri and other shellfish in a mix of soy sauce and sugar. Different to “Tsukudani” (food preserved by boiling in soy sauce), Shigureni is considerably softer. It makes a superb gift, and is on sale at various stores throughout Kuwana.
