Kakuda Zunda Mochi
Vibrant green zunda paste gently envelops chewy mochi—this is Kakuda City's pride, Zunda Mochi. Kakuda City is a town of ingredients known as 'Kakuda 3-me,' taking the 'me' from rice (kome), beans (mame), and plums (ume). Among these, the edamame used for zunda includes the 'Hiden-mame' (Secret Bean), often called a phantom edamame. This special bean can be processed into beautiful zunda without peeling, offering a perfect trio of color, taste, and aroma. Because it is a late-maturing variety that is sensitive to temperature, cultivation is difficult and production is low, making it a precious first-class product. Kakuda's zunda mochi, with its rich bean flavor, delivers a rustic deliciousness unique to its place of origin, offering a different experience from the Sendai version.
