Hell-Steamed Pudding (Okamotaya)
When you insert a spoon, it is firmly set. One bite reveals a rich, dense flavor that gently unravels, followed by a delicate bitterness from the caramel. The mellow texture created by the hot spring steam offers a taste you won't find anywhere else. This specialty has been continuously produced since 1988 using the same method at Okamotaya, which has been operating in Anyu Onsen, Beppu City, Oita Prefecture, since 1875. Using only local milk, eggs, sugar, and heavy cream, each pudding is steamed by hand using high-temperature steam containing sulfur. A unique feature is that despite being additive-free, the pudding is preserved by the antibacterial effects of the steam. A heavenly smoothness born from 'Hell-Steaming.' This is a dish you must try when visiting Beppu.
