I tried to eat 'almost fried oysters' that said, 'I'm fooled by the fact that the encounter is'maybe fried oysters?', But after that it's kamaboko.

' Almost Kaki Fry ' was released on September 1st by

Kanetsu, which is famous for its paste products. This is the fourth in the ' Almost Series ' following 'Almost Crab', 'Almost Scallop' and 'Almost Fried Shrimp', and it is said that it reproduces 'the flavor, texture and appearance like a real oyster!' So I bought it.

The simple package clearly states '* Not an oyster'.

Looking at the raw material names, 'tofu', 'fish meat', 'rapeseed oil', and 'oyster mushroom boiled in water' follow from the top. You can see the word 'oyster extract', but it seems that the oyster itself is not used.

When you remove the packaging, you can see 5 ' almost fried oysters ' and the attached tartar sauce.

It was written that 'it's warmer with a toaster and it's even more delicious!', So immediately wrap it in aluminum foil and warm it with a toaster.

Take it out of the toaster and it's done. From the moment you take it out, the scent of fried oysters drifts around you, and when it's on a plate, you might believe it's fried oysters at a glance. However, if you look closely, the batter becomes soft and you can't seem to taste the 'crispy' texture of the fried food. This is because it is sold refrigerated, unlike the actual fried oysters.

As soon as you eat a bite, the oyster-like scent fills your mouth and it has a oyster-like flavor. However, there is still ' almost fried oysters'. While I was eating, I felt like, 'Oh, this is a paste.'

When you divide it in half, you can see a slightly grayish oyster-like color. Green of the portion corresponding to internal organs of the oyster, which is a raw material of the green laver

Hitoegusa seems to be made of the dried parsley. By adding Monostroma nitidum, which is also used for green laver, the scent of the shore becomes more prominent.

When you eat it with plenty of tartar sauce, the refreshing sourness tightens the taste and gives it a different taste. This tartar sauce also has mustard, and you can eat 'almost fried oysters' more deliciously by carrying it to your mouth.

As for the impression I ate, I can feel the enthusiasm to resemble fried oysters, but the impression is that it has not been reproduced. Another editorial staff member who tasted it said, 'I'm fooling you into thinking,'Maybe it's fried oysters?', But after that, it's kamaboko. It's hard to think of it as 'fried oyster itself', but it's also delicious enough to be eaten as a fried kaki fry.

'Almost Kaki Fry' can be purchased at supermarkets nationwide. The reference price is 275 yen including tax.
