Part of the Get to Know Japan: Kanagawa Series

Thursday, January 27 at 6:30 pm EST 

Considered the “king of the ocean,” maguro is the star of any sushi meal. At the historic Misaki Port in Kanagawa, Japan, fishermen have been using their specialized knowledge to judge the quality of maguro by eye for generations. At this program, Masamitsu Ishibashi, president and CEO of Misaki Megumi Suisan, and Yuji Haraguchi, owner of OSAKANA fish market in NYC, present a primer on this high-quality tuna. Discover what makes maguro so exceptional, get an inside look at Misaki Fish Market in Japan, and hear firsthand about recent developments in the Japanese and U.S. maguro markets. The program also includes a maguro cooking demonstration. Moderated by journalist Akiko Katayama.
