Matsuura-ken Honpo: Karasumi (with Walnut)
There is another confection that a shop, which has continued baking castella since the Edo period, treasures and protects. This is the walnut-infused 'Karasumi' made by 'Matsuura-ken Honpo' in Iwamura, Ena City. Matsuura-ken Honpo was founded in 1796 and is a long-established shop that passes down castella production methods in the castle town of Iwamura Castle. On the other hand, this 'Karasumi' is a unique celebratory sweet of the Tono region made by steaming rice flour, characterized by its expanding shape reminiscent of Mount Fuji. By kneading fragrant walnuts into it, they have achieved a chewy texture. The simple sweetness, said to have been born as a substitute for delicacies in this land far from the sea, touches the heart. It gently conveys the tradition of the Peach Festival in the castle town of Iwamura to the present day.
