Kumasasa Dango (Bamboo Leaf Dumplings)

When you open the bamboo leaf, a soft, green aroma rises. Kumasasa Dango is a traditional local sweet where dumplings are wrapped in the leaves of Kumasasa (Sasa bamboo) harvested from the mountain villages of Shinshu. Nagano Prefecture is a land surrounded by high mountains. Kumasasa, which grows wild in high-altitude areas, has been used since ancient times for preservation and flavoring. Wrapping the dumplings in these leaves provides natural antibacterial benefits and gently imparts the refreshing scent of bamboo to the dango. The subtle bitterness and sweetness of the bamboo leaves pair perfectly with the chewy dumplings. Please enjoy a refreshing bite that feels like breathing in the mountain air, accompanied by green tea. It is a simple yet authentic piece that embodies the atmosphere of the Shinshu mountain villages.
