As a local cuisine, the wonderfully delicious Hachinohe's Rice Cracker Soup (Hachinohe Senbei-jiru) is easy to make. Fresh meat, fish, vegetables, mushrooms together with a piece of local rice cracker (divided into several parts) are put into a pot that contains Japanese fish stock, after hours of simmering, done! Rice cracker soaked with savory fish stock tastes exactly like al dente pasta, chewy and sticky.
