It is getting cooler these days. Autumn has come. It is said that Autumn is the best season for workout and reading books. And most importantly, we have a good appetite in this season! A lot of foods are harvested in Autumn. One of the popular foods often eaten in this season is Pacific Saury(サンマ).
サンマ is “秋刀魚” when it is written in Kanji. 秋 means “Autumn, 刀 “sword”, and 魚 “fish”. Pacific Saury is a sword-shaped fish caught in Autumn.
Pacific Saury is rich in nutrition and inexpensive. However, because of the decrease in harvest, the price is rising these days.
