Beppu Jigoku

In the Tetsuwa area around Beppu's Jigoku, Jigoku-mushi cuisine is famous. This cooking method uses the steam from the hot springs of Jigoku to steam the ingredients. Ingredients such as sea bream, chicken, and vegetables are used, and you can enjoy dishes steamed with the steam from Jigoku, commonly known as "Jigoku-mushi". Jigoku-mushi cuisine is characterized by the steam bringing out the umami flavor of the ingredients, resulting in a soft texture. It is also highly praised for its juiciness among steamed dishes, making it very delicious. There are restaurants in the Tetsuwa area of Beppu City that offer Jigoku-mushi cuisine, so we recommend trying it when visiting Jigoku.
