quote
A hangover (veisalgia) or delayed alcohol-induced headache describes the sum of unpleasant physiological effects following heavy consumption of alcoholic beverages. The most commonly reported characteristics of a hangover include headache, nausea, sensitivity to light and noise, lethargy, dysphoria, diarrhea and thirst. A hangover may also induce psychological symptoms including heightened feelings of depression and anxiety.

Hypoglycemia, dehydration, acetaldehyde intoxication, and vitamin B12 deficiency are all theorized causes of hangover symptoms. Hangovers symptoms may persist for several days after alcohol was last consumed.

There is debate about whether a hangover might be prevented or at least mitigated, along with much folk medicine and simple quackery.

Traditional Japanese remedies for hangover


. WASHOKU
Dried salted plums (umeboshi 梅干)

The caring housewife always keeps them handy when her husband came home late the night befor. It contains a lot of organic acid, which eases the stomach pains and nausea. It also contains sodium and potassium.
If the umeboshi is eaten before you start to drink, it is even better, since it will slow the absorption of alcohol.




. WASHOKU
Persimmon (kaki 柿)

They are used all over Asia to work their wonders on the next day. The catalase which they contain flushes the acetaldehyde out of the system. Potassium gets rid of the other alcoholic toxines and the persimmons add an extra amount of vitamin C to keep you fresh.



WASHOKU
Venus clams (hamaguri 蛤 (はまぐり)

. WASHOKU
corbicula (shijimi 蜆)

WASHOKU
Shijimijiru 蜆汁, しじみ汁 miso soup with corbicula clams

. WASHOKU
littleneck clam (asari 浅蜊 )


They are a familiar ingredient in the Morning Misu Soup. Their high concentration of glycogen, calcium and iron counteract the headache and heal the damaged cells. The other minerals and the amino acid of the miso soup itself is also healing and good for an irritated stomach.

Akagai (ark clam)

[ . BACK to WORLDKIGO TOP . ]

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Ark clam , "red clam" (akagai)

***** Location: Japan
***** Season: All Spring
***** Category: Animal


*****************************
Explanation




akagai あかがい【赤貝】 lit. "red clam"
ark shell, bloody clam, bloody shell
..... kisa 蚶(きさ)
"blood shell", chigai 血貝(ちがい)
Anadara broughtoni
Scapharca broughtonii

It lives on the muddy bottom of shallow inlays. Its liquid is bright red like blood.
Its edible parts are the "tongue" and the "thread" (akahimo 赤紐), also the liver.

From Yuriage 閖上(ゆりあげ) near Sendai, this is the best from Japan.

The fishermen in Yuriage port only take out big ones and make sure not to overfish. Caught in the morning for four hours during the season in April and May, they are shipped and sold at Tsukiji market in Tokyo next morning.
Later in the year, akagai come from Ehime.

This mussle is also called "butterfly mussle", because for sashimi or sushi it is cut to look like a butterfly. 蝶貝

Th black liver is especially taken out and prepared raw, boiled or fried.

During the Edo period, when rich folk and samurai started to eat white rice, this akagai was their only source of vitamin B.
Edo wazurai, see below.



Kubota Mantaro, the Haiku Poet died on 6 May 1963 at the age of 73, of food poisoning, after eating an akagai clam at a party held by Ryuzaburo Umehara.




Kanman-ji 虫甘満寺 / 蚶満寺 the Temple Kanman
The first Kanji character ‘虫甘’ means ‘赤貝(akagai), ark shells”. . . lit.虫甘 "insect that tasts sweet", an old Chinese character for the ark shell.

akagai from Kisakata, Temple Kanman-Ji
Matsuo Basho


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


In the "Records of Ancient Matters" (Kojiki 古事記) we read this:


Umugaihime and Kisagaihime
蛤貝比売命(うむがいひめ) / 蚶貝比売命(きさがいひめ)


CLICK for original LINK ... genbu.net
source : genbu.net.data/toutoumi/kisa_title.htm


According to the Kojiki account, the two deities dispatched by Kaminusuhi to resurrect Ōnamuchi after his eighty brothers had killed him with a heated rock. Kisagaihime gathered shavings from seashell and Umugaihime mixed them with the juice from a clam, applying them "as mother's milk" to the burns and thus reviving Ōnamuchi.

Umugaihime is a personification of the
cherry-stone clam (hamaguri), while
Kisagaihime personifies the ark-shell (akagai).

As a result, this story appears to involve the mythic iteration of an ancient folk remedy, in which grindings from the ark-shell were mixed with the juice from the cherry-stone clam to produce a treatment for burns.

Edo wazurai えどわずらい
【江戸煩ひ/江戸煩い/江戸患い】
"the Illness of Edo", Edo disease

beriberi; vitamin B deficiency
. . . . . kakke 脚気(かっけ)

Toward the 18th century, this mysterious disease started as an affliction of the rich and wealthy, who could afford to eat polished rice, which let to vitamin B deficiency.
Poor townspeople in Edo, who ate brown rice, did not get it, also the poor in the countryside.
Even the 8th Shogun Yoshimune suffered from it for a while, until his cooks gave him a sidedish with the ark clam in miso-vinegar. The ark clam contains a lot of vitamin B.

quote
Once the Tokugawa Shogun established the government in Edo (the former name for Tokyo,) the city attracted people and merchants, drawn to the new capital. Edo is thought to have been the largest city in the world at that time. There was a saying at the time that “Fires and brawls are the flowers of Edo.” Vast numbers of people migrated into the city as workers.
The new arrivals were poor but healthy while Edokko or people who had lived in the town for several generations were suffering from “Edo Wazurai,” or beriberi. Soba turned out to be the prevention and cure, the secret that had protected the newcomers.

Beriberi is caused by a deficiency in Vitamin B. Rich people could afford polished rice; the poor ate whole rice or soba cheaper but much more nourishing. So Edo Wazurai became a condition among the rich. The actual cause of beriberi was unknown until the mid-20th century. Japanese Imperial Army doctors who studied in Germany believed it was the result of bacteria, while Navy doctors studying in England believed the cause was a dietary deficiency and proposed equipping the entire Imperial fleet with baking ovens. This did not, in the end, go forward because of budget constraints.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Career Fish", promoting fish (shusse-uo)

***** Location: Japan
***** Season: Topic
***** Category: Humanity


*****************************
Explanation

"fish promoting in life as they grow larger"
fish having success in life (shusse) as they grow older
しゅっせうお【出世魚】 shusse uo, shusseuo

CLICK for more photos

Fisch der "Karriere macht"
sucessfull fish, erfolgreicher Fisch
promoting fish
fish that rise in rank
fish of advancement
ascending fish


What kind of career and promotion, you may ask?

Well, as they grow up they change their name, and some say, the flavor when used in food, they have noticably distinct flavor profiles as they mature.


In former times it was custom to cook such fish when a boy was born and later celebrated his "coming of age" ceremony.
The traditional GENPUKU げんぷく【元服】 of a samurai boy was celebrated according to family and political situation when the boy was around 11 to 16 years.
Also when advancing in their carreer the samurai would change name frequently and thus celebrate with an appropriate fish dish with such an auspicious fish of his region.

A katagaki, kata-gaki かたがき【肩書】official position, degree or title is very important and always written on your meishi, visitor's card. It is literally the "writing on your shoulder" and defines your social position.


These fish were also eaten for the New Year celebrations.


The most common "fish with a promotion" were
buri . yellow tail
suzuki . sea bass
bora . gray mullet
iwashi . sardines


They were called with different names as they grew larger and were sold on the market with these different names. There are also many regional variations about these fish names.

The latin name for these fish does not change when they grow older and refers to the grown-up fish.


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


maguro マグロ, the tuna fish, does change its name, but is not counted among the shusse-uo.
This holds for unagi eel and shake salmons too.

This small village on the slopes of the high Shikoku mountains in the Iya Valley area uses local and other monsters to bring back some life into the ageing village.
Every year in Summer there is a "Monster Festival", where they serve a big pot of "monster soup".

They also sell "Monster Tea", yookai cha 妖怪茶.



This village is the origin of the monster called
konaki jijii 児啼爺(こなきじじい) "grandfather who cries like a baby", a huge baby monster
If you find him like a baby crying and pick him up, he will get heavier and heavier and turn into stone right there.

子泣きじじい, konaki jiji
is also one of the monsters in the famous GEGEGE no Kitaro
ゲゲゲの鬼太郎 manga. (see below)

- quote -
Konaki-jiji 子泣き爺, Konaki-Jiji, "Old man crying"
The Konaki-jiji is said to be able to take the appearance of an old man or a baby. In either case, the spirit lures an unwary bypasser towards it and allows him or her to pick it up. After the spirit is picked up, it suddenly becomes a heavy stone that crushes the victim to death. In some versions of Konaki-jiji stories, the spirit is that of a baby left to die in the wilderness.
The Konaki-jiji can be traced back to family records in Shikoku where the term was used to describe an old man who sounded like a child when he cried. The term was eventually used in a national encyclopedia of yokai and became a nationally known phenomenon.

In Tokushima (Shikoku)
If people hear him cry in the far mountains, there will be an earthquake.

------------------------------------

On more than 80 spots in the valley, there are "monster legends". Some monsters teach children and the local people to come home before dark, or not to build a house on the slope, because the ground is not safe and prone to landslides.

The children study the local monsters at school and also learn about all the old monsters of Japan.
The grown-ups prepare large faces of styropor for the annual monster procsssion during the monster festival 妖怪まつり. There is also a "monster band" with some music.

The region is now one of the worlds "monster protection areas" 怪遺産 of the world monster association 世界妖怪協会.

Konaki Jijii (子泣き爺, "Child-crying Old Man")
Konaki Jijii is a comic, absent-minded old yōkai man who attacks enemies by clinging to them and turning himself to stone, increasing his weight immensely and pinning them down. He and Sunakake Babaa often work as a team. The original konaki jijii is a ghost which is said to appear in the woods of Tokushima Prefecture in the form of a crying infant. When it is picked up by some hapless traveller, it increases its weight until it crushes him.
Konaki-jijii first appears in a cameo as one of many yōkai attending a sukiyaki party in the story A Walk to Hell before making a more prominent appearance in The Great Yōkai War.
In the 2002 Kodansha International Bilingual Comics edition, he is referred to as Old Man Crybaby.

Explanation

Curry is a dish of India, but in Japan it has taken on a life of its own.

quote
Curry (カレー, karē) is one of the most popular dishes in Japan. It is commonly served in three main forms: curry rice (カレーライス, karē raisu), karē udon (thick noodles) and karē-pan (bread. Curry rice is most commonly referred to simply as 'curry' (カレー, karē).

A wide variety of vegetables and meats are used to make Japanese curry. The basic vegetables are onions, carrots, and potatoes. For the meat, beef, pork, chicken and sometimes duck are the most popular, in order of decreasing popularity. Katsu-karē is a breaded deep-fried pork cutlet with curry sauce.

Curry was introduced to Japan during the Meiji era (1869 - 1913),
at a time when India was under the administration of the British. The dish became popular and available for purchase in supermarkets and restaurants in the late 1960s. It has been adapted since its introduction to Japan, and is so widely consumed that it can be called a national dish.
As curry rice was introduced to Japan via English cuisine, it was originally considered to be Western cuisine.

original curry (オリジナルカレー, orijinaru karē), Japanese style

Curry sauce (カレーソース, karē sōsu) is served on top of cooked rice to make curry rice. Curry sauce is made by frying together curry powder, flour and oil, along with other ingredients, to make roux (ルー, rū); the roux is then added to stewed meat and vegetables, and then simmered until thickened. Adding potatoes to curry sauce was introduced by William S. Clark of the Sapporo Agricultural College, due to rice shortages at the time.

While curry roux and curry sauce are strictly speaking not the same, many people do not distinguish between the two, and it is common for people to ask for 'extra roux' (ルー増し, rū mashi) when ordering extra curry sauce in restaurants.

Instant curry roux カレールー was first sold in powder form by House Foods in 1926, and in block form by S&B Foods in 1956.

Vacuum-sealed curry sauce, prepared by heating the pouch in hot water or the microwave, is also popular.
