Revive the age-old salt-making culture of Japan's Sanriku region with a hands-on salt-making and rice ball lunch experience. You'll embark on a journey that spans centuries. The workshop begins with a factory tour where you'll observe the creation of subtly sweet, smooth-tasting salt crafted from seawater, a tradition stemming from the Edo period. Afterward, embrace the local cuisine by learning to make onigiri, or rice balls, using the region's sea salt under the guidance of local experts. These savory treats not only serve as a delightful lunch but also as perfect trail food for your afternoon hikes.
