Japanese mountain yam marinated in soy sauce — crisp, clean, and very good as a palate cleanser between drinks. Nagaimo is one of the few root vegetables eaten raw, with a pleasantly slippery texture that takes some getting used to. An easy order at any izakaya; light, refreshing, and pairs well with most drinks.

シャキシャキした「長芋」をお醤油に漬けた、食感が楽しいおつまみだよ。長芋は生で食べられる珍しいお芋で、消化を助けてくれる体に優しい食材なんだって。居酒屋でちょっとした箸休めに頼んでみてよ、さっぱりしてお酒にもよく合うよ。
