These dried delicacies are made by hand, one by one, using natural ingredients and Natural Ocean’s unique manufacturing method. No preservatives, coloring agents, food additives or chemical seasonings are used. It is a truly safe and secure additive-free processed food. The company recommends simply eating it little by little as is. By chewing, it becomes more flavorful and goes well with sake, shochu, wine and other alcoholic beverages. It can also be reconstituted in hot water and used for various dishes to have soaking liquid, which is full of flavor and nutrients that add depth and richness to dishes.
In commercializing this product, the company took the opportunity of meeting skilled artisan with unique drying techniques to recreate the environment of sun drying by using far-infrared rays and special vibration waves without requiring heat or wind. This process minimizes damage such as destroying the cells of the tissue of the ingredients and locks in the flavor and nutrition.
The company’s goal is to create products that are both healthy and delicious. The starting point is an appreciation for the owner’s father who had to restrict his diet due to illness and his mother who supported him. The company created these products with one simple desire, which is to bring smiles to people’s faces with a delicious and healthy meal. The owner believes that a smile is the most effective medicine for health. Natural Ocean hopes that many people including those who have faced hardship in their life, the same as the company owner, all will enjoy the taste of its products.
