Nun potato

With a nun potato (あまいも), Amagasaki-shi, Hyogo is a potato of the autochthonism.

Summary

It is said that cultivation was started in (from 1789 to 1801), Hatsushima Ryoshinden zone of the southern part of Amagasaki-cho equal to current Amagasaki-shi in the Edo era. With the area where quality of soil was suitable for the dry cultivation mixed with pebbles and a done sweet potato, it was shipped to the restaurants of the Keihanshin district much.

However, a farm suffers by the inundation damage caused by Muroto typhoon and the Jane typhoon in the late 1900s. The nun potato will decline, but the time, it is 2000, and a citizen "wants to eat a sweet, delicious nun potato once again" increases, and the revival project starts at the part of "the reproduction plan that "the meeting of Amagasaki pollution patient, the family" which played a key role stands, and the patient of the pollution area of Amagasaki-shi gave in southern Amagasaki-shi".

I visit the whole country for the nun potato which became the illusion and discover the origin of the nun potato said to be "Amagasaki red" "forty days potato" (potato) "Genji" in an agriculture research center in Ibaraki and the kind of the potato that it is and I take this to go and cooperate with a farmhouse and cultivate an examination, and "a nun potato club" is made from 2001 and I specialize it in "a forty days potato" now and wrestle for the reproduction of "the nun potato" and work for the reproduction of the nun potato by agriculture cultivation class and the farmhouse of the school, home cultivation. In addition, スィーツ or the shochu using a nun potato are commercially available, too.
