Umino Gochiso Project x SEA VEGETABLE
"The more you know, the more delicious the sea"
What is the Umino Gochiso Project?
Living in an island nation like Japan, we have always benefited from the bounty of the sea. But what is happening in our oceans now?
The Umino Gochiso (Sea Feast) Project aims to share knowledge about the sea, beyond just its delicious offerings. We want more people to understand and appreciate the sea through knowledge and experience.
Sea Vegetable is proud to participate in the Japan Foundation's "Sea and Japan Project," which is dedicated to this mission.
Umino Gochiso Festival (October 8th, Saturday)
At the "Umino Gochiso Festival" held at Ariake Garden, high school students proposed a “Wakame Pasta” dish to promote delicious ways to enjoy the sea. Our culinary development specialist, Ishizaka, has supervised this as well.
Wakame Ravioli:
- Wakame-infused dough filled with scallop and wakame mousse.
- Finished with a soup made from smoked mekabu and kombu broth.
Umino Gochiso Week (October 10th - 16th)
In collaboration with Onsen Dojo Co., Ltd., we will once again offer "Seaweed Baths" and "Seaweed Clay Pack" for a limited time, just like we did on Umino Hi (Marine Day).
By soaking in the seaweed bath and using the seaweed clay pack, we hope to provide an opportunity for deeper conversations and knowledge about seaweed and the ocean.

▼Seaweed Clay (Seaweed Pack) using Suji Aonori:
This year, at each venue’s restaurant and café, you can also enjoy our new product, "Suji-Aonori Furikake made with dedication by the Aonori Shop."
