The intense heat of the day after the rainy season has eased a little, and the days when it is easy to spend for a while, but if the day goes higher, the house will be humid. The news that there are surprisingly many heat stroke indoors crossed my head, reminded me of a sticker next to the entrance of Kotobukido in Ningyocho, and started preparing for coolness.
Judo is located along Ningyocho-dori Street, and famous confectionery called "Koganeimo" is a signboard product, and when you pass near the shop, you have a slight scent of nikki. However, the aim of this time is "Koori Yokan".
What is ice yokan? While imagining that it's like an azuki bar ... and imagining this, I ordered three bottles to the shop. The real thing that came out of the freezer was a cute, yokan stuck in a bamboo skewer. He shouted, "Oh!" In his heart, and paid and rushed home.
The size is 1-2cm square, about 7cm long. Refreshing texture, non-sticky, elegant sweetness. It didn't melt and collapse, and it was a crisp and crisp taste. Put up with 2 or 3 bottles and where you want to eat, and the remaining 2 bottles go to the freezer. Please take care of it again on a hot day.
In early August, Ningyocho Street will be held. Ice yokan is a summer-only product, so please enjoy a moment of coolness with ice yokan when you come.
