Miura-an Mochi-mochi Triangle Butter Mochi

This product features 'Butter Mochi,' a traditional confection originating from Kita-Akita, shaped into triangles by Miura-an. Made by kneading butter and egg yolk into glutinous rice, it is characterized by its chewy texture and simple, gentle sweetness. The easy-to-hold triangular shape is quite adorable. One mystery of Butter Mochi is that it does not harden even when cooled. The addition of butter ensures a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture remains indefinitely. Its satisfying fullness makes sense, given that it was once enjoyed as a portable food for Matagi (traditional winter hunters) entering the mountains. It offers a rich, decadent, and somewhat nostalgic taste of Kita-Akita. Please try this Butter Mochi, which is perfect for both a snack or a gift.
