長崎県·銘菓

Yoriyori (Mahua)

The strong, crunchy bite brings an involuntary smile to your face, and as you chew, the simple sweetness of wheat and sugar gently seeps out. It is a fried pastry with a subtle sweetness and a rich aftertaste that becomes addictive. Known in Nagasaki Chinatown as 'Mahua,' it earned the nickname 'Yoriyori' from its spiral shape, which resembles twisted hemp threads. The dough is kneaded, twisted like a rope, and fried until crispy. Shops in Chinatown, including Suzhou-rin, continue to preserve this unique texture. Once you eat one, you won't be able to stop. It is a famous Nagasaki confection full of the joy of chewing, perfect for an accompaniment to tea or as a snack.
