``Raw sea urchin in milk bottles'' is a familiar item lined up at fresh fish stores and supermarkets along the Sanriku coast of Iwate Prefecture .

When sea urchin was stored in a nearby milk bottle along with seawater, the sea urchin's flesh didn't fall apart easily and it looked beautiful, so it quickly spread.

The orange of the salmon, the white of the squid and scallops, and the green of the mekabu form a mille-feuille-like layer that is indescribably beautiful. It's called "look good"!

This is after serving. Arranged with lots of green onions and wasabi!

Needless to say, the taste is amazing. delicious! It was well seasoned and I ate it as is without the need to add soy sauce. It's a complete meal in no time.

If I had to say, the volume might be a little lacking.

In such a case, you mix two jars of different ingredients, you will have a rich variety of ingredients and a hearty meal, which may bring you the ultimate happiness...
