Local Specialties of Togura Kamiyamada Onsen

(また千曲市自慢のシリーズです。)

千曲市は認定した80品の「千曲ブランド」を最近に宣伝していますが、千曲市の中のこの戸倉上山田温泉で以前から個々の独特な生産者はここに特化した商品をずっと作り続いています。良いお土産にもなりますのでここで紹介します:

笹鈴の六文銭まんじゅ
どの温泉地でも饅頭があるけど、地元の真田家の六文銭のマークのまんじゅは戸倉上山田温泉の笹鈴さんだけ。毎日焼いていて美味しいです。自分で六文銭を焼き付ける体験も可能です。銀座通り。Tel(026)275-1228。

島屋の鮎の甘露煮
長野県は海がないので、川魚が重要です。島屋さんは千曲川の代表の鮎およびワカサギとハヤの甘露煮を作っています。随時に作っていますので運が良ければ、出来立てのを試食ができます。実際に作っているところが見れます。真空パックで売っていますのでここだけのお土産になります。銀座通り。Tel(026)275-1175。

中島の「誉」ブランドの信州味噌
信州は日本の主の大豆の生産のお蔭、信州味噌が昔から注目されています。戸倉上山田温泉の味噌屋さんは中島です。お店に昔の道具が展示してあるし、味噌や地元の特徴の醤油豆の味見もできます。銀座通。Tel(026)275-1069。

佐良志奈焼きのたからや
地元のリンゴの木の灰で特徴な色が出された:佐良志奈焼きのたからやの陶芸です。お洒落な店内で美しい青い色の陶芸。上田獅子の木彫りや地元の森獏郎さんの版画など、他の民芸品も展示してあります。銀座通りの西入口。Tel(026)275-0778。午前8時から午後7時まで。

旅行の時にお土産を買うと、やはり思い出になるその当地の商品がいいですよね。戸倉上山田はこれだけ地元の商品がそろっているのは自慢だと思います。

Chikuma City recently announced a list of 80 local products designated as "Chikuma Brand". Here in Togura Kamiyamada Onsen, we are fortunate to have 4 shops that have been making made-in-Togura-Kamiyamada products for decades. So guests that come and stay at our onsen can enjoy shopping for locally-made items. Here are the 4:

Sasasuzu Manju with the Rokumonsen Mark
You can find manju pastries with the purple adzuki bean paste inside at pretty much any onsen, but you can only find manju with the Rokumonsen mark of the local Sanada samurai family here at Sasasuzu. You can also try your hand at branding the manju yourself with a hot branding iron. Baked freshly every day, so they are extra delicious. On Ginza Dori. Tel(026)275-1228.

Shimaya Kanroni Marinated River Fish
Nagano Prefecture doesn't have an ocean, so river fish are an important part of the local cuisine. Shimaya takes ayu, the main fish from the Chikuma River, as well as wakasagi and haya, to other local types of river fish, and marinates them in a sweet sauce "kanroni" style. You can see how the kanroni process works in their shop, as well as try a sample of some of their creations. They are constantly making new batches, so if you're lucky you can try some just made kanroni, too. The kanroni is available for sale in take-home vacuum packs. On Ginza Dori. Tel(026)275-1175.

Nakajima Miso's "Homare" Label Shinshu Miso.
Shinshu, the classic name for Nagano, is one of Japan's major producers of soybeans. So the prefecture has naturally become known for the quality of its miso paste, Shinshu Miso. Here in Togura Kamiyamada, we have our own maker of Shinshu Miso, Nakajima Miso. In their showroom and shop at the front of their factory, you can sample the different types of miso they make, as well as see some of the antique tools they have on display. Be sure to try the shoyu mame, a local variety of processed soybeans. On Ginza Dori. Tel(026)275-1069.

Sarashina-Yaki Pottery at Takaraya
Our local pottery style, sarashina-yaki, has a distinct blue color resulting from the ash of applewood from the local orchards. Takaraya is a small, chic store displaying lots of the beautiful sarashina-yaki pottery as well as Ueda Shishi lion wood carvings and wood block prints by local artist Mori Bakuro. At the western entrance of Ginza Dori. Tel(026)275-0778. Hours from 8am to 7pm.

When on a trip to a new place, its always nice to buy a souvenir made there in where you are travelling to. We are fortunate to have four shops making local specialties here in Togura Kamiyamada Onsen.
