I was in Kyōto in a restaurant and ate their special lunch menu with a lot of small things. One was this pictured above and after asking, what I understood was, that’s it’s the fishbone of sharks?! I can’t really believe it so can someone tell me what I ate?
It tasted a little bit like gristle, hard to bite but possible and very salty. I think it might have been fermented? I’m not sure. The small spikes you can see should be the fishbone but I can’t imagine that it’s really this. Why should I eat fishbone? Was tasty nonetheless, so, what was it?
