Kamo Mitarashi Dango
A prestigious mitarashi dango born in front of Kyoto's Shimogamo Shrine. It is said to have originated from the "Mitarashi Festival," which has continued at Shimogamo Shrine since the Heian period. The origin lies in modeling the dumplings after the bubbles rising from the water in the Mitarashi Pond within the shrine grounds. It is said that the five dumplings on a single skewer represent the human body (head and limbs), embodying a prayer for good health and protection from illness. The fact that the first dumpling is slightly separated is a remnant of this tradition. Coated in a sweet and savory soy sauce glaze, the dumplings have a fragrant yet simple flavor. This is a flavorful specialty imbued with the history and prayers of Kyoto. When visiting Shimogamo Shrine, please be sure to experience the authentic taste.
