Shikoku is a beautiful island with a mild climate and a rich natural environment. Each region boasts unique, high-quality food products that grew out of local histories, culture and natural environments. The island truly is one of the most ideal places to find genuine Japanese food products. Companies listed in this catalog are those who participated in the Food Business Meetings held in Kochi and Tokushima City, which were organized by JETRO in March 2011. We sincerely hope that this catalog will be of use to those searching for the best and most-genuine Japanese food products from Shikoku. JETRO Tokushima, Kagawa, Ehime and Kochi Brief Introduction of Shikoku Shikoku Island An Introduction to Major Products of Shikoku Overview Shikoku is one of Japan’s four principal islands, which is located south of Honshu and east of Kyushu, and is divided into four prefectures: Tokushima, Kagawa, Ehime and Kochi. These correspond to the four former provinces of Awa, Sanuki, Iyo and Tosa, giving the island its name, which means “Four Provinces”. The north coast of Shikoku faces the Seto Inland Sea, where many beautiful islands floating in a calm sea display impressive scenery. The south coast of Shikoku faces the Pacific Ocean, where the Kuroshio, or “Black Current,” flowing offshore makes for a rich fishing ground. The inland area is also covered by lush forests and high mountain ranges, including peaks such as Mt. Ishizuchi and Mt. Tsurugi, which reach nearly 2,000 meters. Running through these mountains are several beautiful rivers, such as Shimanto River and Yoshino River, offering sometimes wild, and sometimes gentle views. Besides the region’s impressive natural beauty, Shikoku also boasts rich cultural heritage, including Matsuyama Castle, the Dogo Onsen and Kagawa’s plentiful artworks, as well as a number of popular festivals, such as Kochi’s Yosakoi Dance and Tokushima’s Awaodori Dance. Each area of Shikoku has its own special cuisine, many of Sapporo which are famous throughout Japan. These include Sanuki Udon (wheat noodle) in Kagawa, sudachi (citrus fruit) and Naruto Kintoki (sweet potato) in Tokushima, yellow tail and sea bream (fish) in Ehime, yuzu (citrus fruits) in Kochi. Sendai Kyoto Tokyo Fukuoka Nagoya Osaka Shikoku Tokushima Kagawa Ehime Kochi By Air : Regular flights connect Shikoku to Tokyo, Osaka, Sapporo and other major centers throughout Japan. By Land : Shikoku is connected to Honshu (the main island of Japan) by expressways going to Hyogo, Okayama, and Hiroshima Prefectures. Transport By Sea : Many ferries are operated around the Seto Inland Sea, for example, between Kagawa and Okayama, or Ehime and Hiroshima Prefectures. Japanese Food from Shikoku 1 Brief Introduction of Tokushima Tokushima Prefecture The Ideal Place to find the best and most-genuine Japanese foods Overview Tokushima prefecture is located on the eastern part of Shikoku Island, facing the Seto Inland Sea, the Kii Channel and the Pacific Ocean. Around 80% of the land is mountainous with bountiful forests and beautiful rivers. This rich nature in Tokushima yields various kinds of agricultural and marine products in abundance, and many of them are consumed in the Kansai Area, which includes Osaka, Kobe and Kyoto. Besides foods, Tokushima is well-known for the Awaodori Dance, which takes place around mid-August. Every summer season, over one million tourists from all over Japan - as well as overseas - come to enjoy the passionate and graceful Awaodori Dance. 2 Japanese Food from Shikoku Example of Main Food Products Handa Somen Noodle Somen noodles are one of the most popular noodles among Japanese people besides udon, soba and ramen noodles. Handa Somen is quite unique because it is thicker than normal somen noodles, and is well- known for its “springiness”, which is an important point for Japanese noodles. You can use this noodle for a variety of dishes, not only for Japanese cuisine but also for Western or Asian cuisines such as a pasta dish. (Picture: Handa Somen noodles in a salad style, which goes perfectly with hot summer days.) Naruto Kintoki (Sweet Potato) Naruto Kintoki is the most famous sweet potato in Japan, of which the price is highest among sweet potatoes. It is grown in sandy soil near the coastal area around Naruto City, which makes the potatoes as sweet as they can be. You can find many delicious processed foods, like sweets and cakes, made from Naruto Kintoki. Other main products in Tokushima (Rank by production volume among Japanese prefectures*) Awaodori Chiken (1)**, Japanese Conger (2), Wakame Seaweed (3), Fresh Shiitake Mushroom (1), Lotus Root (2), Cauliflower (1), Spring and Summer Carrots (1), Sudachi Citrus (1), Yuzu, Japanese Sake and Liqueur, Somen Noodle, Tokushima Ramen, etc. **Rank among “jidori” or local chickens.

  • Washoku Guidebook(PDF : 3629KB)
    和 食 Traditional Dietary Cultures of the Japanese Itadaki-masu WASHOKU - cultures that should be preserved What exactly is WASHOKU? Maybe even Japanese people haven’t thought seriously about it very much. Typical washoku at home is usually comprised of cooked rice, miso soup, some main and side dishes and pickles. A set menu of grilled fish at a downtown diner is also a type of washoku. Recipes using cooked rice as the main ingredient such as curry and rice or sushi should also be considered as a type of washoku. Of course, washoku includes some noodle and mochi dishes. The world of traditional washoku is extensive. In the first place, the term WASHOKU does not refer solely to a dish or a cuisine. For instance, let’s take a look at osechi- ryori, a set of traditional dishes for New Year. The dishes are prepared to celebrate the coming of the new year, and with a wish to be able to spend the coming year soundly and happily. In other words, the religion and the mindset of Japanese people are expressed in osechi-ryori, otoso (rice wine for New Year) and ozohni (soup with mochi), as well as the ambience of the people sitting around the table with these dishes. Food culture has been developed with the background of the natural environment surrounding people and culture that is unique to the country or the region. The Japanese archipelago runs widely north and south, surrounded by sea. 75% of the national land is mountainous areas. Under the monsoonal climate, the four seasons show distinct differences.

  • Biogeography and Evolution of the Carassius Auratus-Complex in East
    Takada et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2010, 10:7 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Biogeography and evolution of the Carassius auratus-complex in East Asia Mikumi Takada1,2*, Katsunori Tachihara1, Takeshi Kon2, Gunji Yamamoto2, Kei’ichiro Iguchi3, Masaki Miya4, Mutsumi Nishida2 Abstract Background: Carassius auratus is a primary freshwater fish with bisexual diploid and unisexual gynogenetic triploid lineages. It is distributed widely in Eurasia and is especially common in East Asia. Although several genetic studies have been conducted on C. auratus, they have not provided clear phylogenetic and evolutionary descriptions of this fish, probably due to selection bias in sampling sites and the DNA regions analysed. As the first step in clarifying the evolutionary entity of the world’s Carassius fishes, we attempted to clarify the phylogeny of C. auratus populations distributed in East Asia. Results: We conducted a detailed analysis of a large dataset of mitochondrial gene sequences [CR, 323 bp, 672 sequences (528 sequenced + 144 downloaded); CR + ND4 + ND5 + cyt b, 4669 bp in total, 53 sequences] obtained from C. auratus in East Asia. Our phylogeographic analysis revealed two superlineages, one distributed mainly among the Japanese main islands and the other in various regions in and around the Eurasian continent, including the Ryukyus and Taiwan. The two superlineages include seven lineages with high regional specificity that are composed of endemic populations indigenous to each region. The divergence time of the seven lineages was estimated to be 0.2 million years ago (Mya) by a fossil-based method and 1.0-1.9 Mya by the molecular clock method.

    Who Imitates Whom?

Lieberman The Anderson School at UCLA Box 951481 Los Angeles, CA 90095-1481 E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 310-206-7665 Fax: 310-206-3337 February 19, 2011 1 Who Imitates Whom? A Study on New Product Introductions in the Japanese Soft-drink Industry ABSTRACT Imitation is observed in various contexts in the business world and numerous theories on imitation have been proposed. Incumbent theories on imitation are organized into two broad categories: information-based theories and rivalry-based theories. Information-based theories propose that firms follow others that are perceived as having superior information. Rivalry-based theories propose that firms imitate others to maintain competitive parity or limit rivalry. This study tries to distinguish among the theories by examining when and what kinds of firms are more likely to be followed by others in their new product introductions in the Japanese soft-drink industry. The empirical analysis shows that in brand-new product imitation, firms follow large competitors, while in product proliferation within established product categories, firms do not tend to follow large firms but mimic others of similar size. These contrasting results are reasonable, suggesting that two theories on imitation coexist and environmental uncertainty may be one of key distinguishing characteristics. In the case of brand-new products, firms face much uncertainty.
