Product Features and Key Points
The finest sakura shrimp from Suruga Bay
Sakura shrimp is only caught in limited areas of the world.
Suruga Bay in particular is known as the home of sakura shrimp fishing, and its beautiful, clear cherry blossom color and delicate sweetness are unparalleled.
Bosen's dried cherry shrimp is made using only fresh cherry shrimp caught in Suruga Bay.
Traditional sun-dried method
Sun-dried with the blessings of the sun, something that can never be achieved by machine drying.
By drying the shrimp slowly over time, the original flavor and aroma of the shrimp are concentrated, resulting in a deep, rich taste.
Sakura shrimp, dried to the optimum state using the expert eyes and experience of our artisans, boast an exceptional flavor.
Impressive Nutritional Profile
Sakura shrimp is so rich in calcium that it is also called "calcium of the sea."
Because the shell can be eaten, calcium absorption is high, making it ideal for growing children and those concerned about bone health.
It also contains protein, iron, vitamin B12, and other nutrients, making it packed into their little bodies.
Additive-free and color-free for safe quality
No preservatives or coloring agents are used.
This product delivers the flavor and color of the ingredients themselves, making it a safe choice for those who prefer natural foods.
Versatile for All Kinds of Dishes
It can be enjoyed as a snack on its own, poured over rice to make sakura shrimp rice, or used as a topping for okonomiyaki, kakiage, pasta, salad, and a variety of other dishes, regardless of whether they are Japanese, Western, or Chinese.
Just a small amount can add an elegant touch of flavor and color to the entire dish.

After opening, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Adding a desiccant will help keep the product fresher for longer. Avoiding moisture will help maintain its crispness.
How do you recommend cooking it?
It's delicious as a snack on its own, but lightly toasting it enhances its aroma and brings out even more flavor. You can also stir it into miso soup or other soups at the end of cooking to enjoy its umami as a dashi (Japanese stock).
Is it safe for children to eat?
Yes, it is additive-free and free from artificial coloring, and rich in calcium and protein, making it an ideal choice to support children's growth. However, for young children, please crush it into small pieces or mix it into their food to prevent choking.
Do You Have Any Allergy Concerns?
