When I visited “Senko no ie” in Takeda district in Fukui prefecture a little while ago, a traditional Fukui food called “Suko” was served.  It is a preserved food which the stem of a taro called Akazuiki harvested from summer to autumn and pickled in vinegar.  This is a Fukui traditional food. This food that my grandmother used to cook it with the ingredient from her farm, the crisp texture, sweet and sour taste has been one of my favorite foods since I was a child. T.S
