Kyo no Ochatsubo Shiruko (Kyoto Tea Pot Red Bean Soup)
A Kyoto-style Japanese confection where you can enjoy authentic red bean soup (shiruko) simply by pouring hot water into a monaka shell shaped like a tea pot. 'Kyo no Ochatsubo Shiruko' features a monaka shell molded after a traditional tea pot, filled with the base for red bean soup. The tea pot is a symbol of the connection between Kyoto and tea, famously known through the 'Ochatsubo Dochu' (Tea Pot Journey) where Uji tea was transported to the Shogunate. By breaking the adorable monaka shell and pouring in hot water, you create a single bowl containing fragrant monaka wafers and smooth, thick red bean soup. Despite its ease of preparation, it offers a deeply satisfying, authentic flavor. It is an enjoyable Kyoto sweet that serves as a warm snack for cold seasons or a delightful small gift.
