Description of Products for Trade Inquiry
While traditional and common ways of enjoying yuba include sashimi-style and rolled yuba, we have expanded our product lineup to include items like hamburgers, shumai, nuggets, catering to individuals of various ages.
The history of Nikko and yuba dates back to 766 when the founder of Nikko, Priest Shodo, established Nikko Mountain and consumed dried yuba during ascetic training on Mt. Nantai. Yuba was valued as a lightweight, protein-rich, and preservable food. In the Meiji era, it became a staple in ordinary households, firmly establishing yuba as a part of Nikko's culinary culture.
