Simmered head of Kinmedai

            Kinmedai (splendid alfonsino, Beryx splendens) is a deep sea fish with large eyes that inhabits the sea bed at the depth of 200 to 800 m. Kinmedai literally means "golden eyed sea-bream" although it is not a species related to the sparidae family.
It is a local speciality of Ogasawara and Izu islands due to their geographical proximity to the Pacific sea trench.

Heads of fish are offered at lower prices as they need additional chopstick skills to get meats from the head bones. These meats often taste better.

Attached herb is Hagoromo (Ming aralia, Polyscias fruticosa), a perennial shrub native to Polynesia. The government says it is an invasive species.
