Japan's most beloved freshwater fish, the ayu, or sweetfish in English, inhabits only the cleanest rivers in the country. Living on a diet of pure algae, the ayu has a unique watermelon-like scent and a delicious flavor. Journey with us to the ayu's beautiful natural habitat and discover how this so-called queen of the river is caught and prepared in a variety of local and modern dishes.
