Flying fish (Ago-dashi)














Flying fish is called "ago" in Japanese.
"ago" is the dialect around Nagasaki, and it means flying fish.
Flying fish is the seasonal fish of June and July.
We are eating it as shio yaki (grilled with salt) , fry, and also sashimi.









 

 
The taste is very light because its fat is low.
We also eat its roe which is called as “Tobiko.” It is served as a ingredient of sushi.
It is very tiny and looks like smaller version of Ikura.  But taste is different.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Dashi of dried flying fish is called "ago dashi". Dried flying fish is made by drying simmered flying fish.
Ago dashi has a refined taste and flavor.
It is used in various dishes ranging from miso soup to simmered dishes. Especially it goes well with noodles. It is mainly used in Kyushu region.
