香川県·和菓子
Oiri
Small pink, yellow, green, and purple spheres roll across the palm. The moment they enter your mouth, they crumble and melt away, leaving behind only a faint scent of cinnamon. It is a sweet that relaxes the heart just by looking at it. This is a celebratory sweet traditionally distributed by brides during weddings in western Kagawa Prefecture since ancient times. It takes approximately ten days from steaming the glutinous rice to the final product. These seven-colored puffed grains, made with great care and effort, embody the wish to work diligently while maintaining a 'round' (gentle) heart. They also look lovely when served alongside soft-serve ice cream, offering an enjoyable light and crunchy texture. Please enjoy this light, happy melt-in-your-mouth sensation that has long colored celebratory occasions in Kagawa.
