Japan's food network begins in the water, the field, and the mountain — in free-diving traditions, river fisheries, and the seasonal foraging of wild spring vegetables — and extends through aquaculture systems, graded livestock programmes, and the specialist producers who sustain living heirloom varieties. These ingredients reach the cook through channels as ancient as the neighbourhood tofu shop and as modern as the convenience store, each governed by its own procurement logic and quality grammar.
