Atsumi no Karinto
A crunchy and fragrant, traditional and simple Karinto (deep-fried dough snack). Atsumi no Karinto is a sweet that has been enjoyed for a long time in Akita. Unlike typical Karinto, it is characterized by its square shape, and by using starch syrup instead of sugar, it creates a unique crunchy texture and gentle sweetness. The toasted aroma of sesame added as an accent enhances the nostalgic flavor. Because it is so simple, once you start eating, you won't be able to stop—it is a deliciousness that never grows old. It is so popular that quantities are limited even locally, making it a true hidden gem known only to those in the know. It is perfect not only as an accompaniment to tea but also as a snack. If you see it, please give this Akita treat a try.
