Harvest festival of “Nemagaridake”, bamboo shoot(in Tashiro, Odate city)

Mt. Tashiro in Odate makes lots bamboo shoots called “Nemagaridake”, that are soft, narrow and long characteristically.

A day in the season, this year was today, the event that you can eat valuable Nemagaridake miso soup is held.

In Akita there are many mountains having Nemagaridake, I think Tashiro's one is the tastiest.
