Ika No Shiokara is squid fermented in its own guts that are salted. Shiokara falls under a category of dishes referred to as Chinmi in Japanese which directly translates to, rare taste in English but more accurately it means local delicacy or exotic food. Shiokara is best eaten with a warm bowl of rice or on its own as a pairing to sake or other alcoholic beverages. Our favorite way of eating it is with baked potato with melted butter. A little goes a long way with this dish so give it a try, we’re sure that there is more than enough for everyone.
