Kikuya Kujira-mochi
Kujira-mochi from Kikuya Mochi-ten, which has operated in Asamushi Onsen since before the war, is characterized by its use of glutinous rice and fresh red bean paste. As one of the two major Kujira-mochi producers in Asamuna alongside Nagai Kujira-mochi-ten, its specialty is a more chewy texture. Both shops continue to compete to preserve the tradition of this steamed confection, which was brought from Kyoto via the Kitamaebune shipping route.
