McDonald's potatoes become "daigakuimo"

"Japanese-style potato fries university potato flavor" that you can taste by sprinkling "university sauce" on McDonald's "McDonald's" (medium size) will be on sale from today (February 15th).

Last year (2016), a menu to taste McDonald's potatoes with chocolate appeared, and the sweet and sour taste attracted a lot of attention. This time, it seems that the arrow of white feathers stood at "Daigakuimo" where you can enjoy a different "Japanese taste".

Eat with sauce from college

When I tried it in the editorial department, it was exactly the potato version of Daigakuimo ! It's sweet, salty, fluffy and delicious!

◆ The package is also elaborate

First look at the package. The design with the furoshiki as a motif is cute. There are 6 types of traditional Japanese patterns such as arabesque, checkered pattern, and Qinghai wave. Limited quantity.

◆ Sprinkle with sesame sauce

The set "University Imono Sauce" is a special sauce made by adding black sesame and kneaded sesame to honey. Sprinkle this on hot potatoes.

thus

When you eat a hot potato covered with a thick sauce, the saltiness and umami of the potatoes are entwined with the sweetness of honey and the aroma of sesame, which is very delicious. The exquisite sweetness that makes your index finger move is completed.

It's a potato, not a sweet potato, so it's not as sweet as a real Daigakuimo, but it's the best synergy between saltiness and sweetness.

Sweet and salty

The rich sauce gives you a feeling of fullness, so this alone will make it a light meal for breakfast or when you're hungry. It's only available until mid-March, so if you like Japanese sweets, please try it before it runs out!
