Rock Oysters
Tottori’s rock oysters, caught as-is by free diving, can reach lengths of up to 20 cm and weights of up to 1 kg. Called ‘the milk of the sea’, these oysters are excellent eaten raw with a squeeze of fresh lemon. Unlike the Pacific oyster, the season for the rock oyster is from early summer through the Obon holiday period. This hearty morsel is the ultimate summer taste of Tottori.
