I got the hydrangea sweets that will be on sale for a limited time during the rainy season at the Toyoshimaya patisserie "Toyoshimaya Western Confectionery Okiishi", which is famous for "Hato Sablés" in Kamakura. Hydrangea-motif cookies have a crunchy texture with a blueberry flavor. Hydrangea assortment is also very satisfying with cute snail cookies and cupcakes with beautiful chocolate art!

It's cakes made of bracken-root starch. They don't have fixed shop but appear at any events, so they're said to be rare. Mild Taste of the foodstuff and really soft. Kinako (soy bean powder) is not so sweet, I think that is because they are proud of warabi-mochi itself.

I bought 'Hayama Girls' Travel Ticket' at Shinagawa Station of Keikyu Line, and went to Hayama. Enjoyed tour at Shiosai Park, Kanagawa Prefectural Museum Of Modern Art, and Motito Shrine.

Without any preservatives, bleaching agents or food colorings. They draw clear water for only necessary amount from well every morning, and spend time and effort to make these Mitsugashi (sweetened food). The vegetable flavors are embraced as they are in sugar, I feel like to eat vegetables rather than sweets!

Ama-natto Kawamura

They pick the water for boil beans, and the sugar made from mushrooms or seaweeds. And more, they adjust the time for boil beans and the amount of sugar depending on its kinds, hardness and size. They explode the usual images, that is to say the ultimate Ama-natto!
