Kogashi Manju
A fragrant steamed bun made by kneading "Mugi-kogashi," an auspicious item from Atami, into the dough. Mugi-kogashi is an ingredient closely related to Atami, made from roasted and powdered barley. Kogashi Manju, which uses plenty of this in its dough, is a popular item at Lusca Atami. It is a steamed bun featuring smooth bean paste made from domestic adzuki beans, generously coated in a special black syrup made with domestic brown sugar. The flavor features multiple layers: the chewy dough, the richness of the brown sugar, the elegant sweetness of the adzuki beans, and the toasted aroma of the barley. This is a unique steamed bun characteristic of Atami, where fragrance and gentle sweetness coexist. Please enjoy one with tea while strolling through the hot spring town.
