A souvenir : Otemoyan

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

I went to Kumamoto with my mother and my older sister in early December.
We went for a one-day trip to Kumamoto.

Today I'd like to introduce the souvenir of Kumamoto.


This is "Otemoyan".
It is a famous confection of Kumamoto.


"Otemoyan" is the name of the folk song of Kumamoto, and it is also meaning of a young woman.


It is a kind of steamed bun.
The dough of outside is made with rice flour.


It is filling with red bean jam and milk cream.
The dough has the soft texture such as the rice cake.
It is sweet and delicious !!!
