Kashishi Jinno Konnyaku Mochi
A sweet with a mysterious, soft, and jiggly texture. This is the famous "Konnyaku Mochi" made by Kashishi Jinno in Hanawa Town. It is a unique Japanese confection also known as "Yamafugu Mochi," made by kneading konnyaku powder with glutinous rice flour. Its creation was inspired by the professional wrestler Giant Baba. After being impressed by Baba enjoying the local specialty konnyaku oden at an event in Hanawa Town, the makers went through much trial and error to see if they could create a sweet using konnyaku. Inside, pieces of yokan are hidden, providing an accent to the texture. Because it contains no additives, it has a short shelf life and can only be purchased in Hanawa Town. Look for the white building near Iwaki-Hanawa Station.
