The appearance of Japanese armorhead (Tsubodai) nigiri<\/p><\/div>\n

Characteristics:<\/span><\/p>\n

Japanese armorhead (Tsubodai) is distributed along the coast of Japan south of central Honshu and the northern Palau Ridge. The body length is about 30 cm. The body is quite strongly laterally flattened. Its body color is purple-gray, and its abdomen has a silvery-white sheen. Juveniles spend their lives in the surface layer, but when they grow to about 10 cm in length, they move to deeper waters, about 100~400 m deep.<\/span><\/p>\n

The dried Japanese armorhead (Tsubodai) that appears on store shelves is often slender (Kusakaritubodai). Tsubodai are rarely seen, but they are delicious as sashimi. The beautiful dark red meat (Chiai) and the sweetness of the refined fat are irresistible.<\/span><\/p>\n
