    Maybe it’s fishcake? Its hard to see if its processed or not from both your pix.

    Hard to tell from the bad picture but my guess would be Hotate (scallops)

    Ever consider asking the people who are serving it to you?

  4. I did a Google Image search, and it suggested it might be something called ‘kabura’ sushi. Salted turnip/daikon with fish sandwiched between and then the whole thing is fermented.

    There was also a suggestion it might be horse fat sushi, which might explain the texture.

    Every other suggestion involved it being a bao/dumpling of some kind.

    In that region there is farm raised and then canned abalone. They are very small and that is what they appear to be. Basically it’s a boiled baby abalone.
