Scallops from Aomori, one of the major producing prefectures, are highly valued for their smooth flavor with umami and sweetness.
Hotate is not only eaten as sashimi, but also made into products such as dried conpoy, canned hotate, steamed hotate, salted shiokara hotate, and condiments such as mayonnaise.
