Oshu Manju

A simple and warm manju (steamed bun) that has been beloved by travelers along the Michinoku highways since ancient times. Inside the moist skin, there is a generous amount of carefully prepared red bean paste. The Oshu Highway, which connected Edo to Oshu, was once a bustling road where many people and goods passed through. This flavor has been loved by travelers as a companion for taking a breather during their long journeys. It may not be flashy, but one bite brings an inexplicable sense of relief. The nostalgic, gentle sweetness melts away the fatigue of travel. It is a traditional, familiar Japanese sweet that you'll want to savor slowly with a cup of warm tea.
