Azusado Kobayashi Himochimochi (Frozen Rice Cake)
The harsh winter cold of Shinshu gives birth to this mochi. Azusado Kobayashi's 'Himochimochi' is a traditional preserved food made using the freezing cold air of winter. Himochimochi is made by soaking mochi in water, freezing it, and then drying it by exposing it to cold winds. In Shinshu, temperatures reliably drop below freezing at night, while dry winds blow during the day. This stable climate has made the 'freeze and dry' process possible without special equipment—it is essentially the original freeze-drying. With a light, crumbly texture and a simple sweetness, please experience the flavor nurtured by the winter climate of Shinshu. It is a nutritious Japanese sweet filled with the wisdom of our ancestors.
