Try the Autumn taste of matsutake mushrooms at Shiki in Seattle

10/26/2020

What is a Matsutake mashroom?


It's a mushroom that is native to North America, specifically the West Coast. It's also known as the pine mushroom, and October is the season. Matsutake mushrooms have special scent, and eating them will make you feel the arrival of Autumn. In Japan the Matsutake mushrooms symbolize fertility and happiness and have health benefits! They are a good source of B vitamins, protein, copper, potassium, zinc and selenium.

Season for sea urchin has begun!

Uni(Sea Urchin) sushi $7 at Shiki


​What's the difference between a Green Sea Urchin and ​a Purple Sea Urchin?

​
​For a limited time, we are now offering  Green Sea Urchin which is a very sweet sea urchin that can only be found in the Autumn/winter season.​

As you know, the color of the spines are different. Because it's a small sea urchin and the quantity is small, there are few restaurants that serve it in Seattle. 

​Chef Ken-san takes time to carefully take out the local Green sea urchins.

​Green Sea Urchin Rice Bowl at Shiki


​Uni sushi is delicious, but the Uni Rice Bowl is also very satisfactory in quantity and the taste. It's currently available for $35. You can even change half the amount to Ikura (salmon roe)!

Who wants to eat Oden in Seattle?

10/6/2020

What is Oden?

Oden is a Japanese comfort food for a cold day. This Japanese-style hot pot has assorted fish cakes, daikon, slow cooked beef tendon skewer, konnyaku (yam cakes) and vegetables in a dashi broth. ​

​Oden is a Japanese dish that is considered a winter staple and is often eaten together as a family.

​Where can I get Oden in Seattle?

​If you search for Oden on Yelp, you'll find Shiki. 

There are several places in Seattle where you can eat Oden, but I highly recommend eating here at Shiki because our Japanese chef "Ken-san" knows what true Japanese food tastes like. 

​When you go to a convenience store in Japan in winter, you can buy Oden. Japanese people eat it like a snack. ​Of course, Shiki's oden is a high quality food!

​
​Oden goes well with sake

You can enjoy the sake hot or cold, depending on your preference. 

We also offer sake, which you can enjoy with Oden. 
(Blog about our sake)
​
Generally speaking, a hot dry sake is better for Oden. Warm the sake to 122°F and drink it, and you will enjoy the scent of both oden and sake.

​ Warm it up in the microwave for about 30 seconds.

More Info

Oden is a seasonal food (Autumn/Winter), so please call to order for $19.50! It would be great if a lot of people eat our Oden. Be sure to check out the sake too!

Enjoy "Japanese Sake" with authentic Japanese food here in Seattle!

8/24/2020

We offer various Japanese Sake and food, but you might not know about the combination of them when you buy dinner at Shiki, so we will introduce you about our Japanese Sake so that you can enjoy our food more. (Bottles are fragile so Takeout only!)
​
Picture
Japanese Sake we offer

"辛口(Dry Sake)​"
These have dry taste and strong fragrance so we recommend you to drink with meat dishes (Sukiyaki, Pork Belly Donburi etc.) or Sashimi. These go well with strong flavored meals.
Picture
From left to right are 水神(Suijin) and 風の森(Kazanomori)​

​・Suijin $15, Alcohol 16%
・Kazenomori $48, Alcohol 17%

"大吟醸(Daiginjo)"
​Daiginjo sakes take the rice polishing ratio down to 50% or less. They are made in smaller quantities, and rely more on traditional methods. Flavor and aroma profiles tend to be full, and exceptional labels display both complexity and finesse. These go well with lightly seasoned dishes that bring out the flavors of the ingredients. (Tempura, Sashimi etc.)
Picture
From left to right are 月桂冠(Gekkeikan "Good Fortune"), 鳳陽(Ho-yo "Fair Maiden")​ and 賀茂泉(Kasmoizumi "Autumn Elixir")

​・Gekkeikan "Good Fortune"$23,Alcohol 16%
​・Ho-yo"Fair Maiden" $42,Alcohol 15%
・Kamoizumi"Autumn Elixir" $42,Alcohol 16%

"にごり酒(Cloudy Sake)"

​​It is filtered through a wide mesh, which allows the fine particles of rice to penetrate and create a cloudy sake. These go well with food with a melt-in-your-mouth texture. (California Roll, Sea urchin etc.)
Picture
From left to right are 月桂冠にごり(Gekkeikan Nigori), 賀茂泉濁り吟醸(Kasmoizumi "Summer Snow")

​・Gekkeikan Nigori $12,Alcohol 10%
・Kamoizumi “Summer Snow” $38,Alcohol 17%


"Other options"
​We also offer different kinds of sake. These go well with a variety of foods and the bottles are lovely! ​The yellow one tastes like citrus and the pink one is sparkling so it's easy to drink.
