Sennan Taro (Tsukimi-imo)
The round, well-shaped taro from Sennan City is also called 'Tsukimi-imo.' It earned this lovely name because it is used as an offering during the Jugoya (mid-autumn moon viewing) festival. Its history began in the Taisho era with the cultivation of Ishikawa-wase in the Kawachi region, and in 1985, it was officially registered as a variety named 'Sennan Nakano-wase' by Mr. Nakano, a local resident. Osaka's taro is a high-quality product with a fine texture that has long been prized by traditional Japanese restaurants. When boiled, a chewy and sticky texture spreads throughout the mouth. When cooked in stews, it absorbs flavors beautifully and melts tenderly, offering a profound, savory taste. It is a potato of our hometown that one would want to savor slowly while gazing at the round autumn moon.
