Dear all,
Good morning. I hope you enjoy the presentations. If you finished sending questions, just do it. If you, as a presenter, have not finished answering, just do it.
Here we go on to the last ones.
I have only two, so some students have not submitted or I lost the submission email.
If the latter, let me know directly by sending email.
Then here is the link.
So I wonder if Shimane people enjoy shijimi picking at Shinjiko or restirced in the lake. I lived quite near from the shore in Okayama in my childhood, and clam picking is just an usual event with my father. Off course no charge. But here in Tokai area, it is not easy to find good places for no-charge clam picking.
Thank you for your presentation, Mr. Nakamori.
ReplyDeleteI was tempted to eat them when I saw how big and tasty they looked.
Shijimi is a well-known food in Japan, but how is it eaten overseas?
Thanks for the question.
DeleteIn China and Taiwan, they use it in soups and fried vegetables.
Why do they spit out sand when they are put in salt water?
ReplyDeleteSijimi also inhale and exhale sand as they breathe.
DeleteShijimi live in brackish water, so if they are immersed in salt water, they lose sand as they breathe.
Hi Nakamori, As you mention before about consumption of Shijimi clams and the alleviation of fatigue and hangover symptoms, and which specific compound found in these clams is responsible for this effect?
ReplyDeleteShijimi contains ornithine.
DeleteOrnithine not only helps the liver break down acetaldehyde, but also breaks down toxins that remain in the bloodstream.

ReplyDeleteLicensed fishermen are taking the whitebait.
DeleteIt is better to contact the fishermen's cooperative when taking them to avoid trouble.
I love Shijimi soup. Thanks for letting us know that it helps with fatigue and hangovers.
ReplyDeleteWhy did Lake Shinji become famous for Shijimi?
Shijimi fishing in Lake Shinji has become famous as the number of Shijimi has been decreasing nationwide.

ReplyDeleteWhen I was first-year university student, I collected a lot of freshwater shijimi from the irrigation canal in front of the university and made miso soup with them.
ReplyDeleteThat's not a Yamato shijimi, is it?? I remember that the taste was no different from ordinary shijimi miso-soup.
I think it is TaiwanShijimi. I have never had it, but I believe it tastes the same as YamatoShijimi since it was originally edible.
DeleteI don't like shijimi because they are small and hard to eat, but I think I will like Yamato shijimi because they are big. By the way, why do they grow so big? Can any shijimi grow big if we give them a lot of nutrition?
ReplyDeleteThe quality and quantity of food and the temperature of the water affect the growth of Shijimi. In addition, a stable, stress-free environment. I think they will grow bigger if they are nourished, but I don't really know because some Shijimi cannot live in different salinities.
