Hoichi's Ear Manju (Fig Flavor)
The famous ghost story "Hoichi the Earless" has unexpectedly become a manju. It is a highly topical souvenir that makes you want to tell someone about it. This "Hoichi's Ear Manju" was planned by a team of female students from Shimane Prefectural University Junior College, inspired by the ghost story of Lafcadio Hearn (Koizumi Yakumo). It is an ear-shaped manju with pink dough filled with white bean paste and fig jam. Born in 2014, it once disappeared but has recently been revived through a renewal. The idea of why it is shaped like an ear will surely make you chuckle. It is scary yet somehow cute. Please pick up this unique item that can only be found in Matsue, the village of ghost stories.
