姉が青森から大切に抱えて来てくれた弘前の老舗和菓子屋さんの「冬夏」
以前テレビで観て、食べてみたいと妻と娘が話していたのを姉が覚えていて買って来てくれました
薄紙をとると、表面にはたっぷりと和三盆がかかっていて、食感はサクサク
初めて食べたのに懐かしくて素朴なのに繊細な不思議なお菓子
お店のご主人が丁寧に丁寧に愛情を込めて
作ったことが、伝わってきます
これは幾つでも食べられちゃう美味しさ
また好物がひとつ増えました😃
あぁ弘前がもうちょっと近かったらなぁ😆
門之助🤞
Japanese sweets called “Toka” from Hirosaki, Aomori.
As my wife and daughter saw a TV program about a Japanese confectionery shop of a long history in Hirosaki, they were mesmerized by the simple sweets the old owner was making and asked my sister to get one.
It’s light and crispy covered with “wasanbon”, Japanese traditional refined sugar.
Simple but refined and somehow or another, you feel like nostalgic, though it’s the first time to try it.
You can clearly tell the affection of the owner of the shop towards what what he makes and how gently and carefully he makes one by one.
Can’t stop eating!
Wish Hirosaki was much closer to Tokyo…
