I actually bought and ate Costco's New Year's 'Ginza Lohmeyer Western-style New Year's Three-tiered Costco Original'
Around November 2021, the mysterious information that 'Osechi is sold at Costco' was brought to the editorial department, and when I actually went to Costco, it was 'Order from the net', so
When I searched, I found 'Ginza Lohmeyer Western-style Osechi Sandanju Costco Original' with the following feeling. The price is 25,880 yen including tax. The size of the box is 26.2 cm in length x 26.2 cm in width x 21.8 cm in height. It is delivered by 'refrigerating' instead of freezing on the schedule you choose, either December 30th or December 31st, so 'no thawing required' is also a good point.
That's why I arrived safely. I couldn't track it from Costco's order history, so I wasn't sure when it would arrive, but it arrived in the morning of December 30th.
Opened with a snap
Wrapped in a furoshiki, it's unexpectedly heavy
It's in a decent wooden jubako, with an envelope on top that says 'Oshinagaki.'
As a preface, an explanation of the contents of each weight and a questionnaire postcard were included. The explanation of the contents of the jubako is quite detailed, so be sure to read it.
When arranging from one to three, it looks like this
First of all
Salmon quenelle cream boiled with salmon roe
It tastes like after boiling cream stew. Salmon is soft and delicious.
Marinated scallops and beans Salsa pomodoro
There is a lot of acidity, the scallops are juicy, and the beans are just the right cushioning material.
Abalone (green lip) confit
The chewy abalone texture has a slight acidity, and the crushed texture of the sauce on top is pleasant.
Two-color paprika mousse
It tastes like eating the sauce as it is
Brandy boiled gold powder decoration of flower beans. Elegant and strong sweetness with a rum raisin-like taste, beans are also soft and can be made into desserts.
Sockeye salmon with smoked orange. The thick smoked salmon itself is delicious.
Lobster Thermidor
The contents of this big shrimp are empty, haribote
It looks like a big egg, isn't it? Feeling
The taste is completely fine shrimp gratin. There is an instruction that it is delicious to cook in the microwave, so you should do so. Chin will dramatically improve the taste.
Next is double
Cocktail sauce shrimp. Refreshing ketchup, shrimp and shrimp are quite juicy.
Fondant potato apple caramelize
It tastes like an apple pie in a cheesecake
Mixed pickles of colorful vegetables
Standard pickle taste and acidity
Ham and cheese quiche
It has a strong gratin-like richness and a strong cheese feel. This should also be microwaved.
Headed shrimp vegetable bouillon tailoring
The shell is soft, and the taste of bouillon and shrimp are mixed and juicy. Perfect score.
Foie gras mousse framboise jelly
Very delicious but complicated and strange taste, if you dare to say cheese. The black one is rum raisins.
Western-style Kuri-kinton
Kuri-kinton with custard cream flavor and vanilla scent. I wondered what the Western style was, but it was really Western style.
Two types of cheese terrine & two types of cheese terrine tomato jelly
The terrine is firmer than it looks, it has a little sourness, and the texture is like cream cheese.
Fruit jelly with kanro-ni jam sauce of young peach
The young peaches are crispy and feel pretty good. The fruit jelly is also fresh and sweet, but the aftertaste is refreshing.
Last, Sanju
Cheese case with onion pickles
In short,
Iberian pork roast pork
Even as it is, it does not smell like pig and is very delicious.
Chicken with ajillo basil sauce
Lentin required. It is salty, and the aroma of basil and the umami of chicken are quite rich.
Wagyu roast beef. Actually, there are 3 times the amount of photos, 12 in total.
This sauce is good anyway!
The fat and sauce of Wagyu beef match and the taste is quite mellow.
Fricassee of beef
When chinned, it becomes like a corned beef loosened in a toro, and has a rich beef taste.
Herb-scented roast beef
It's thicker than the roast beef of Japanese beef, and it's delicious!
Beef cheek meat boiled in red wine
Lentin is essential, the beef cheek meat is soaked in flavor and has an elegant and luxurious stew feeling.
So, as an impression of eating all of them, I felt that 'I see, it certainly has a Costco atmosphere.' In a nutshell, it's best to call it 'Costco's New Year dishes'. It is made in the atmosphere of 'It's one rank higher, but the price is low, but the amount is large', which is familiar with various ingredients and dishes sold at Costco, and it is not Japanese style but completely Western style as you can see. It's a calm atmosphere ... it's more like a haha party, and it's definitely for energetic people. As you can see, especially Sanju is 'meat! Meat! Meat!', And it is quite greasy, so it meets the demand for 'I want to eat osechi with a savory taste!'. Anyway, it's a terrible new year's osechi, so in that sense it's the perfect place for everyone to poke for a special event during the year-end and New Year holidays. want to eat! It is recommended in that case.
