Kansai Television Network Corporation (KTV) introduced Tecchan's Awaji Island fresh onions in the "Wagamachi LIVE Julia's Ichi-Oshi" corner of the news report runner!
I am here today in Minami-Awaji City, Hyogo Prefecture.
The entire area is covered with fields!
Fruity new onions are in season in this region right now!
I would like to talk to this onion farmer!
This is Tetsushi Hamada, aka "Tecchan.
What are you particular about growing onions, Tecchan?
Weeds grow quite well, but we produce safe and secure onions by reducing the use of herbicides and pesticides.

Beautiful pure white!
Close your eyes and imagine you are eating a pear.
Very fresh!
So for the harvesting experience, we use a net that holds 2 kilos of...
Ta-da!
It goes from 2 to 3 or 4 kilos.
They are cooking with freshly picked onions...
The cook was Tecchan's wife, Atsuko, a.k.a. "A-chan".
What kind of food did you prepare for us?
Cooked rice with fresh onions.
What a surprise! A whole one!
They all have onion extract in them. It's a very watery onion, so when you cook it.
It is best to use a little less water.
Bon appétit!
Sweet! The onions melted right away.
It's amazingly delicious!
What other ways are there to eat?
Since they are new onions, we recommend eating them raw.
So, we make a salad.
Wakame seaweed, sea chicken, and sesame oil.
