Bunkyu founded! Chestnut steamed yokan once a year at Nihonbashi Kiyokazuken

[Shiba Inu] October 13, 2018 18:00


Kiyokazuken, a long-established Japanese confectionery shop located in Nihonbashi Horidome-cho. Founded in 1861, Takasugi Shinsaku and Sakamoto Ryoma ran around in the middle of late Tokugawa shogunate!

Dorayaki and chestnut buns are very popular. It is also a sight of every morning that a line in suits is formed to purchase as a souvenir for business partners. How delicious is it? Speaking of which, I think it fits with the "most delicious dorayaki taste" that you think of!



Kiyokazuken sells it once a year around the day of physical education.

Chestnut steamed yokan.



The reason for once a year is that all the processes are handmade by two craftsmen, so only a small amount can be made with a complete reservation. Reservations begin around September.


And this chestnut steamed yokan is here!

The density of the sauce is thick, but the mouth is smooth and the chestnuts are fluffy.


Because it is soft, if you do not handle it carefully, the shape will collapse.


This is "Kurimushi Yokan"...I'm going to eat it silently. If you like sweet food, please try it by all means....!! You can have time to think about the coming autumn while drinking tea slowly.

It's two days, October nineteenth and twentyth. It is a lively city festival that even those who are not interested in pickling can enjoy very much. By making good use of the narrow alleys running vertically and horizontally, the sun goes down and creates a mysterious sight.
