Perhaps it's a selfish image, autumn is Japanese sweets! I have a place to associate with. Where it's getting chilly, the elegant sweetness and appearance of Japanese sweets can be enhanced.
I heard rumors about the birth of a new product that attracts attention from such Japanese sweets, so I will introduce it immediately! It is "Amo" of the prestigious Japanese sweets "Kano Takumi-an" of Mr. Otsu, Shiga Prefecture! Hmmm, it's a pretty name, but what kind of Japanese sweets are they ...?
"Amo" from Kano Takumi-an is a traditional confectionery.
"Amo" is the finest sweets made by wrapping soft mochi in azuki beans that have been carefully cooked and have an elegant sweetness. By the way, it's a trivia, but it's said that sweets are the shape of Japanese sweets, and stick-shaped Japanese sweets are called like this! This "Amo" is a famous confectionery that represents Kano Takumi-an, which was born in 1971. Notably, a new "salt-flavored" version was released on October 8th! It's an exquisite harmony of sweetness and saltiness, a trendy style.
Traditional confectionery is now available in "salt taste"! The saltiness and sweetness of azuki beans are exquisite
Even if it becomes a salty version, the commitment to "Amo" remains the same. One pot, one pot, azuki beans with a low sweetness that the craftsmen cook with great care so as not to crush the grains, and rice cakes that have a fine and smooth look like the skin of a baby made by the craftsmen, which is truly a traditional confectionery!
In addition, it is full of attention to the point of saltiness! By adding Shiratamako to the mochi, you can make a chewy mochi that matches the salt. The salt is grilled salt from Ako, which is grilled at 400 ° C (752 ° F). By using this grilled salt, you can enjoy a mellow taste without emphasizing saltiness! Since its release, it seems that it has been so successful that a total of 1,000 limited editions are sold out per day!
The package is also elegant
In recent years, salt sweets have become quite popular, but isn't this salty "Amo" a big favorite?
