Kinman
When you bite into the fluffy dough, it is moist and soft. From a castella-style crust made with plenty of honey and eggs, smooth white bean paste flows out. The subtle sweetness melts in your mouth. A representative confection of Akita. These adorable, round manju are filled to the brim with white bean paste inside a golden-brown crust. Their light texture makes it easy to keep reaching for more, one bite-sized piece at a time. While perfect as they are with tea, there are various ways to enjoy them locally—such as topping them with butter and toasting them, or frying them and sprinkling with salt. It is a simple, timeless, and classic taste of Akita.
