Ημερομηνία προβολής: Ιαν 06, 2021

A city known for its soy sauce production, Choshi lies 100km east of Tokyo, in Chiba Prefecture. Soy sauce production began during Japan's Edo era, although it was widely used on sushi and tempura before then. But why Choshi?

But how could geology make such a difference? The Ground Detective is on the case!
