Jimami Tofu
When scooped with a spoon, it bounces playfully. Once in your mouth, the fragrant sweetness of the peanuts spreads softly from the chewy base. 'Jimami' is the Ryukyuan word for peanut. Since the fruit grows underground, it is written as '地豆' (earth bean), which is said to have evolved into this name. Although it has 'tofu' in its name, no soybeans are used. It is made by kneading together peanut juice and potato starch (from sweet potatoes). Its roots go back to the Ryukyu Kingdom era, and it is believed to be modeled after 'Peanut Tofu' from southern China. Peanuts were once precious and served as a delicacy on special occasions. Please enjoy its gentle sweetness.
