Amoya Minami-Kasuga Shitennoji

The mochi is made from the highest quality Habutae mochi from Shiga Prefecture, and the salt is Nuchimaasu from Okinawa (a high-mineral sea salt from Okinawa that is also listed in the Guinness). It features flavorful red peas and carefully selected ingredients. You can enjoy the unique firm texture of the pounded mochi, the aroma of the mochi, and the light sweetness of the homemade smooth red bean paste. It is not too sweet, elegantly balanced with a moderate saltiness, making the harmony between the mochi and the paste exquisite.

A casual snack or a small gift. This is a bite-sized and easy-to-eat Karin-to Manju, freshly fried every morning. The outer dough of the brown sugar manju, made with brown sugar from Hateruma, is crispy and fried to perfection, while the inside is moist with red bean paste made from Hokkaido azuki beans. Since it is fried in rice oil, it is light and easy to eat, making it less likely to cause stomach discomfort. It is delicious even when it becomes soft, but if you fry it again in oil at 180°C for about a minute or warm it in a toaster for about 2 minutes, the crispiness will return.

The red rice, freshly steamed and sold every morning, is made from 100% glutinous rice from Saga Prefecture. Although red rice has a higher calorie content compared to white rice, glutinous rice is filling and contains a component called amylopectin, which helps suppress digestion and the absorption of carbohydrates. Additionally, adzuki beans have the effect of warming the body, relieving constipation, improving hangovers, preventing high blood pressure, and promoting beautiful skin. The dietary fiber and vitamin B1 in adzuki beans are also effective in preventing obesity, making it a delightful food for women. Please enjoy the pride of Minami Kasuga, our red rice! *On the 1st and 21st of every month, we will sell 100g at a special price of 194 yen including tax at the store (seasonal chestnut red rice is excluded).

The mochi is wrapped in a furoshiki cloth and placed on the child's back to celebrate their birthday. The round shape of the mochi also signifies a harmonious life. Recently, parenting magazines have featured this tradition, and more parents are celebrating their children's healthy growth with issho mochi.

During the service, this rice cake is offered, and once the service is over, the top umbrella rice cake is cut into the shape of a master of training. The cutting method varies by religion and region, but it resembles a figure wearing an umbrella and holding a staff with beads. A document detailing the cutting method will be provided.
