Uzumi

"Uzumi" is a local cuisine of Fukuyama, where the ingredients are buried under rice and eaten. It is said to have originated from the prohibition of luxury, where the ingredients were hidden under rice. At first glance, it looks like just rice, but when you eat it, tofu, taro, shiitake mushrooms, and other ingredients come out. Nowadays, it can be enjoyed in various styles, including Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine!
