Usage

Any fish makes the surimi

Surimi does not care which fish it came from, so cod, tai or tobiuo all give the same obiten. Work it with tofu, egg, ginger and nerimiso in the suribachi, then put the mixture in the fryer with oil.

In the real world

Obiten belongs to the Obi district of Miyazaki. Surimi from tobiuo, sardine or other fish is worked with momen tofu, ginger, egg and seasonings, shaped by hand and fried slowly at a low temperature. It goes back to the Obi domain of the Edo period and is notably sweet with sugar.

Differences in game

Draining the tofu and mincing the ginger are omitted. Nerimiso supplies the seasoning, with no extra salt or soy sauce.
