Kawagoe Kasho Dokan - Dotchiimo

When you open the bamboo skin, the sticky aroma of sweet potato wafts out. This is 'Dotchiimo,' the flagship product of Kawagoe Kashapo Dokan. It is a steamed confection similar to yokan, made by mixing strained sweet potato paste with white bean paste and candied sweet potato, then wrapped in bamboo skin and steamed. It is packed with the natural sweetness of the sweet potato. The name 'Dokan' is inspired by Ota Dokan, a Muromachi-period warlord who built Edo Castle and Kawagoe Castle. The shop is a long-established establishment founded in 1921, located near the Honmaru Palace of Kawagoe Castle. This is a sweet potato-centric treat unique to Kawagoe. It offers the joy of unwrapping bamboo skin and provides a flavor reminiscent of Little Edo. It is a simple yet profound taste that never grows old.
