Head Editor : Kitakaro

Kitakaro’s long-selling product, "Hokkaido Pioneer Okaki," is known for its dedication to using locally sourced ingredients from Hokkaido. Focusing on the treasures of the sea, this premium rice cracker lineup includes 10 varieties featuring top-quality ingredients such as squid from Hakodate, sweet shrimp from Mashike, autumn salmon from Shibetsu, scallops from Esashi, kelp from Erimo, octopus from Shiranuka, and cod roe from Tomakomai’s Kojohama, along with three popular seasonal offerings.

The foundation of these crackers is the carefully selected Hokkaido-grown glutinous rice, known for its excellent stickiness, texture, and fine quality. The production process involves meticulous attention to detail over seven days, including washing, steaming, pounding, aging, drying, frying, and seasoning. Hokkaido-sourced salt, filtered through the nutrient-rich northern seabed, is used for seasoning, adding natural minerals that enhance the flavors of the ingredients.

These rice crackers, packed with the umami of Hokkaido’s seafood, are perfect not only as a snack but also as an accompaniment to drinks. Their delightful texture makes them popular among a wide range of ages, from young children to the elderly.
