【Japanese Food Recipes】Rice-Stuffed Squid ("Ikameshi") 

"Ikameshi" (literally means "squid rice") is originally a local dish from Hokkaido. It has become a common dish throughout Japan.
Ikameshi was invented as an "ekiben" (bento, or packed meal, sold at railway stations) at Mori Station in Hokkaido during the Second World War, when the rice was in short supply. It gained a reputation for being delicious and filling. You can still buy the ekiben at Mori Station.
