We’ll introduce the wagashi Mizuhikisou. You
can buy it at Keigetsudo, a famous wagashi shop in Matsue.
Mizuhikiso means Jumpseed flower in English.
Mizuhikiso (Jumpseed flower in English) |
The flower is not
familiar to us, but it is cute with tiny red and white flower. The wagashi is decorated
to represent the flower, leaf and vine. The light violet color is so beautiful!
The texture of this wagashi is soft and
smooth. There is strained red bean paste (koshi-an) inside. And the outside is slightly sticky
because it is made from white bean paste, rice flour and sugar (nerikiri). This wagashi has a
gentle sweetness which complements powdered green tea.
