大分県·銘菓
Zabieru
When you break open the moist dough, fragrant with butter, smooth white bean paste peeks out. Japanese and Western flavors gently meld together, with an elegant sweetness that slowly unfolds. This Nanban-style sweet was created in honor of Francis Xavier, who proselytized in Oita City, and is currently produced by Zabieru Honpo. There are two varieties: silver wrappers for white bean paste and gold wrappers for bean paste with rum-soaked raisins, all presented in an elegant box reminiscent of the Bible. Although the recipe once disappeared, it was brilliantly revived by former employees. It pairs well with both coffee and tea. Please enjoy this quintessential Oita souvenir.
