Kabura Sushi (Ishikawa)

A staple dish of the New Year in Kanagawa

Kabura Sushi is a kind of “Nare Sushi” made with salted buri wrapped with salted kabu (turnips) then pickled in kouji (amazake). Kabura Sushi has been one of the preserved foods of winter in Kanazawa. Each home has its own recipe, and some uses mackerels as well. “History of Kanazawa City (people’s daily life edition)” describes about the delicacy dishes for guests in the New Year as “Namako, konowata, and kaburasu (sushi).” It is still a staple dish for the New Year not only in Kanazawa but also in Toyama.
