・A top-secret organization called “Oppapi” has been launched to solve the problems of Aichi’s sea! Aichi Prefecture is surrounded by Mikawa Bay and Ise Bay, and has a thriving coastal fishing industry including aquaculture. In recent years, there have been concerns about a decrease in the amount of fish caught in the Aichi Sea due to rising seawater temperatures and marine debris issues. If things continue like this, fishermen’s income will decrease, interest in local seafood will dwindle, people will turn away from fish, and people in Aichi will become less interested in Aichi’s oceans. In fact, according to the 2022 Awareness Survey on the Sea and Japanese People, people in Aichi Prefecture rank 40th in the nation in terms of their “attachment to the sea.” Therefore, 12 sea-loving children formed a secret organization called “Oppapi” to investigate the problems faced by Aichi’s sea, and to think about what they could do to solve the problem. We have started a project to become The person who brings the children together is the popular entertainer Yoshio Kojima. In June, we held an educational tour to investigate the current state of Aichi’s oceans and broadcast the program “Aichi’s oceans are turning into wires – Learn about sea issues!”  * “Waya” is a dialect word that means “unreasonable” or “ruined” ・Develop a fish burger using unused fish! This time, boss Yoshio Kojima’s command to the Opppi Detective children is, “Develop a fish burger using unused fish!” The children asked for help from Asana Mori of Kotobuki Shoten Co., Ltd., also known as Mr. Mori, a fishmonger who shares information about fish on YouTube. Children gathered at Mr. Mori’s shop will try their hand at making burgers using the fish “Aigo,” which is a popular fish among anglers. Although the flesh of the fish is delicious, people tend to avoid it because of its poisonous fins and stinky internal organs. Mr. Mori showed me how to cut the salmon, and I sampled the salmon sashimi. Aigo that is processed while fresh is very delicious! After experiencing the deliciousness of Aigo, the children finally tried their hand at making hamburgers. The children put together their own ideas in pictures and worked hard to figure out what flavor and toppings to add to make it delicious.

                       ・The first item is “Aigo and kelp green seaweed tartar burger” The first dish is to carefully remove the bones from the prepared salmon, coat with breadcrumbs, and fry. So, based on the idea from the children, “Can we use seaweed?”, we mixed green seaweed with tartar sauce to create an original “green seaweed tartar sauce.” The “Aigo and Salted Kelp Seaweed Tartar Burger” is made by sandwiching cabbage, tomato, salted kelp, and perilla leaves between buns and pouring plenty of our original green seaweed tartar sauce. The children who tried the samples said, “The fried salmon is crunchy and the inside is fluffy and delicious!” It has received great reviews, with comments such as “It’s delicious and has a different texture from sashimi!” and “The green seaweed goes well with tartar sauce!”

The first item was a Western-style burger with fries and tartare, so next time I’ll make a “Japanese” flavor. At Mr. Mori’s suggestion, we will make kakiage with fillets of salmon and wakame seaweed. Seasoned with sweet and salty fish sauce infused with the flavor of whitebait, we added onion slices and perilla leaves to accent the flavor and texture to complete the “Japanese-style burger with fried salmon and young shoots”. This is also a big hit with children, who say, “The chewy texture of the salmon and the crispy texture of the kakiage are delicious!” and “It’s refreshing and delicious, unlike tartar.” Boss Yoshio Kojima, who sampled the product, was all smiles and praised it, saying, “Yoshiran, 5 stars!!!”

The two prototype hamburgers were sampled by the general public who came to TV Aichi’s festival event, and the decision was made to decide which one to sell. The children’s energetic calls drew people who wanted to help, and there was a crowd in front of the booth! The children were very busy listening to their impressions after tasting the two types of hamburgers and introducing the unused fish used in the toppings. The sample hamburgers we prepared ran out in no time.
