Katsuo (bonito) Shuto

Katsuo Shuto is born by salting and aging rare parts of bonito over a long period of time. Taking advantage of this long-term aging process, Shuto (Japanese Anchovy) can be used as a secret ingredient and is actively used in the cooking scene. If you mix it with cream cheese and spread it on crackers, it will become a light snack. The combination with pizza is excellent. If you add olive oil or butter, it becomes an exquisite sauce that will take the dish to the next level.
