Original taste twice a week <Eitaro Sohonpo Tamadare>

[whatever] March 4, 2014 08:30

 Last fall, "Town Walking Tour Nihonbashi Long-established Course 1" participated for the first time with the help of lead. We introduced three long-established stores: Ninben, Eitaro Sohonpo, and Yamamotoyama. At that time, while listening to the story at Eitaro Sohonbu, the manager introduced a wasabi-flavored raw confectionery called "Tamadare", and I was always worried.

 I took a break on a certain Tuesday to listen to the results of the ward's health checkup at a hospital in Nihonbashi in January, or I dared to Tuesday because Tuesday was only convenient only on Wednesday, There is a reason. These products are sold only on Tuesday and Thursday. I made a phone call and booked one.

 So, this is the ball (Smimasen with only the cut picture).

 Is it 16-7cm in length and 2-2.5cm in diameter? The light green core wrapped in white fertilizer is very beautiful. It is said that it is made by mixing Yamatoimo, sugar, and grilled rice flour that has been grounded in wasabi. You can feel the pungency and aroma of wasabi firmly, but it goes well with a slightly sweet fertilizer. It's a very mysterious taste, and it's an unexpected habit. I had it with matcha.

 We use this wasabi (from Amagi), but he said that it could not be manufactured too much because of the low production volume, so he said that it was sold only on Tuesday and Thursday at Nihonbashi Main Store. Please try the original and precious taste once.
