Food Capital Information Center
For chefs
Shizuoka Prefecture is blessed with a diverse climate, including Japan's tallest Mt. Fuji and Japan's deepest Suruga Bay, and produces a variety of high-quality agricultural, forestry, and fishery products. The number of agricultural, forestry and fishery products produced is one of the highest in the country, and the number of awards received by the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries is consistently high, making it a treasure trove of ingredients in both quantity and quality, a ``kingdom of ingredients'' so to speak.
The Fujinokuni "City of Food" website provides content that conveys the appeal of Shizuoka Prefecture's food to the general public.
There is a "Food" corner that introduces shops run by workers who have been awarded as "Fujinokuni Food Capital Creator" and "The Craftsman of the Year," as well as "recipes" using Shizuoka ingredients, and Shizuoka ingredients. Please take advantage of Shizuoka Prefecture's ingredients, such as the "Know" corner that provides basic information.
