Kyokushodo Usuyuki
"Usuyuki" is one of Aomori's representative famous sweets, preserved for over a century by Hirosaki-based Kyokushodo, founded in 1916. The ingredients are limited to "Kogyoku" (a highly acidic variety specialty of Hirosaki), agar, and sugar. It is an extremely simple Japanese-style jelly made by setting the flesh of well-ripened Kogyoku apples with agar, without adding any unnecessary ingredients. A light pink plate shaped like a snowflake (yukiwa) from sliced apples is dusted with a thin layer of sugar, resembling fallen snow. After a crisp bite, the refreshing sweet and sour taste of Kogyoku apples spreads through the mouth. This elegant piece, which relies solely on the power of its ingredients, evokes the winters of Tsugaru. It is a famous confection that has been loved across a hundred years.
