🫀 Offal Guide - The Gastronomic Art of Organ Meat
🌐 Cultural Bridge: From Western Offal to Japanese Hormone
Just as France celebrates its andouillettes, tripes and sweetbreads, Japan has developed the art of hormone. Futago elevates this tradition to gastronomic level, transforming "what was thrown away" (放るもの) into sought-after delicacies.
🧠 "Mottainai" Philosophy: Waste nothing, transform each part into a taste experience. Offal over direct fire reveals textures and flavors impossible to achieve with other cooking methods.
