Okurakan
"Okurakan" is a unique item where okra has been kneaded into Kagoshima's traditional sweet, Karukan. Karukan is a fluffy, white specialty of Kagoshima made by steaming mountain yam (jinenjo) and glutinous rice flour. It is a historic steamed confection said to have been created in the Satsuma Domain during the Edo period. By adding okra to the dough, its mucilaginous component creates a moist texture and spreads a subtle vegetable flavor. This is an enjoyable item that combines a traditional taste with a new ingredient. While maintaining the gentle sweetness and fluffy texture, you can enjoy a Karukan with a slightly different twist. Please try this combination unique to Kagoshima.
