Jumangoku Manju
A mellow white manju that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand. When broken open, smooth fine bean paste appears from beneath the thin skin. Along with a faint wisp of steam, the gentle aroma of rice and taro (tsukune-imo) rises softly. Born in Gyoda, this famous confection is characterized by using taro and rice flour in its skin instead of wheat. This is precisely what results in its uniquely moist, thin, and chewy texture. The filling consists of adzuki beans from Tokachi, simmered in-house to achieve a clean and elegant sweetness. The flavor of the skin and the smoothness of the bean paste melt together into one in your mouth. "Delicious, too delicious" — one bite makes you instinctively nod in agreement with those words written by the printmaker Shiko Munakata. It is a white manju that has been loved by the people of Saitama for a long time.
