Mushagaeshi
With one bite, the buttery pie pastry crumbles lightly and crisply. Behind it appears a smooth red bean paste with a subtle hint of pale purple. The fusion of Japanese and Western elements leaves a refined, understated sweetness in its wake. A masterpiece created by Kumamoto's Koubai, boasting an ultra-thin pie pastry made of one hundred layers folded with fresh butter. The red bean paste, prepared by peeling and kneading, has a smooth melt-in-the-mouth texture and an elegant taste. The name is derived from the beautiful 'fan-shaped' slope of the stone walls of Kumamoto Castle, known as 'Mushagaeshi.' The contrast between the crispy layers and the melting bean paste is delightful, making it irresistibly delicious. It is a fine fusion treat to enjoy while imagining Kumamoto Castle.
