Hagi Keido Toraya Chausu Mochi

"Chausu Mochi" is a specialty mochi from Hagi Keido Toraya, established in 1905 and loved for over a century in Owani Town, Aomori Prefecture. The name is inspired by Mount Chasu, which overlooks the town of Owani. Mount Chasu is one of Aomori's most famous azalea spots, with 15,000 flowers blooming in early summer. The triangular shape of this mochi serves as a landmark, modeled after the mountain. It contains only five ingredients: soft, stretchy gyuhi made from shiratama flour, filled with large, plump simmered tiger beans (toramame). The fragrant roasted soybean powder (kinako) gently enhances the sweetness of the mochi and beans. This is a simple, rustic taste of Owani that has long been enjoyed by hot spring visitors and skiers alike.
