History and Origins

The cotsnoma is an algae about 20 centimeters high, attached to the rock between the tides. It's just that you're growing up with a regular, two-folding process. It is said that this name has been named because its branches resemble the harpposts that hold the strings of the harp. When you put it on the fire, it would produce coolness, and cool it with the properties of coagulating, which used it as a soap or glue. At the end of the year, since the merchant came to sell the Kodjinoma for the New Year's Eve, he could be cooked for rice. In New Year's Day, not only do you have the habit of eating a delicious dish but you have to eat a nice "heavy" and make your stomach feel better. (Singing on New Year's Eve) There are also areas used for the festival.

When It Is Eaten

It's the end of the year. It's made as a food for dinner. It's an essential dish for New Year's. It's a delicious taste, so it's valued as a favorite Japanese dish's snack.

How It Is Eaten

After washing the cotsnoma thoroughly and putting the dirt away, put it in boiling water and boil until it comes out. When the rice comes out, pour it into the mold, cool it down, and cut it into easily eaten sizes. It's a wonderful taste to enjoy the aroma of citrus. In addition to the soy sauce, we eat with casserole and garlic. We can also enjoy the difference between flavor and texture when we eat by keeping the pieces of carrots and seams together as an oven.
