宮城県·銘菓
Hashikura-yaki
When you break through the crisp crust, the elegant sweetness of the white bean paste and the savory aroma of walnuts gently unfold. It is a moist flavor where Japanese and Western elements melt together. This confection was created in 1958 by Fujiya Chifune in Sendai. The name is inspired by Tsuneyaga Hasekura, a member of the Keicho Embassy to Europe who crossed the ocean over 400 years ago under the orders of Date Masamune to negotiate trade with Spain. It is said that the name was given to this fusion of Japanese and Western styles in honor of Tsuneyaga's great achievements in striving for East-West exchange. Since then, Fujiya Chifune has devoted itself solely to preserving this single masterpiece. It is a renowned Sendai confection filled with the pride and sincerity of its artisans.
