 People who steam in a steaming basket, those who carry steamed rice, those who knead, those who grind, those who carry rice cakes, those who stretch, those who roll, etc., are bustling on Ningyocho Street with Owarawa, just like preparing for Ikusa. Was.

With a pestle, swung down with a shout. It's also hard to say.

If you are hit with a pestle (to Thailand ^^^^^)

 

  According to the chairman of the town,

Here at the Nihonbashi Neighborhood Association, the unity of the townspeople has been firm since the Edo period, and many people always participate in the festival. More than half of the people have come to the town, and their young people seem to be helping happily like residents here for generations. And it was a squirrel.

 It is the work that experience speaks, not the power of young people (rice cake making).

The method of growing hot rice cakes quickly before steaming rice, steaming, and growing hot rice cakes without burns, all of which have many years of experience.
 "rice cake making" was the best way to organize the neighborhood association.

       

              How about in your neighborhood association?
