seasonal treats


sakuramochi consists of a sweet pink mochi and red bean paste, and covered with a leaf of sakura.
They are available only from January to march, which is ahead of the actual sakura bloom season. Leaves are salted from the previous seasons. Its magnetic aroma comes from organic compounds called coumarin. Anyway, it’s so chewy yummy I would say that is my soul food.
