Hakusui's
Three Key Points of Emphasis
Hakusui Ichiban’s main focus is the fish used as ingredients. We exclusively use “eso,” a fish highly regarded for its quality, as the ingredient for our fish cake products. These eso are caught off the shores of Hakata, and sourced from local markets. We oversee every step from fresh fish processing to the final product at our in-house facility. While many Japanese fish cakes are made from imported frozen ingredients, Hakusui’s products stand out with the use of domestically sourced fish.
Using the traditional stone mortar method, our craftsmen meticulously kneaded fish paste while adding seasonings. This preserves the fish’s natural umami, resulting in delicious fish paste.
Our factory is located in an area known for its pristine water. Hakusui products are made using natural spring water. We conduct weekly water quality tests to ensure safety.
