Going Crackers

Once again working on the book about Japanese treats I’m lucky enough to get to sample a real Japanese delicacy. This here is a Sembei cracker from a famous shop in Ginza. They’re famous because each season they design a line of decorations for their crackers, then they hand paint the designs on each cracker.
I got this cool fish one to shoot for the book and now I get to eat it. These crackers can go for 3 or 4 dollars each, so it’s not something most people would invest in.
