Nagai Kujira Mochi Store - Ita-karinto
This is a plate-shaped karinto (deep-fried dough snack) with a simple sweetness, enjoyed alongside the rising steam of Asamushi Onsen. It is produced by Nagai Kujira Mochi Store, founded in 1907. Much like their signature Kujira Mochi, the roots of this karinto lie in a method brought from the Kansai region to Ajigasawa via the Kitamaebune shipping route. A characteristic of Kansai-style karinto is kneading sugar into the dough and frying it thin and flat to achieve a crunchy, hard finish; its sweetness, coated in brown sugar, is not overly sweet and offers a nostalgic flavor. After soaking in an onsen, taking a bite with hot tea allows the crunchy, fragrant texture and gentle sweetness to spread throughout your mouth. This is a perfect snack for after a bath, born from the craftsmanship of a long-established shop that has continued for over 100 years.
