Yusenpei (Unzen)

These are thin-baked crackers made with hot spring water, a beloved treat in the mountains of Unzen. Made by kneading flour, eggs, and sugar with hot spring water and baking them to a crisp, they are a confection similar to wafers. Legend has it that they began in the Meiji era, created as a confection to be presented to the former lord of the Shimabara Domain, who loved hot springs. Around 1884, they were marketed as a specialty and took root in the hot spring area. Their charm lies in their subtle sweetness and light melt-in-the-mouth texture. This is a famous Unzen confection you want to enjoy along with the atmosphere of the hot spring town. Crispy, fragrant, and gently sweet. It is perfect for those moments during your travels—tasting them freshly baked while strolling through the hot spring town.
