Oct.31 was
Halloween’s day. Did you get many confections? Today, I introduce Japanese confectionery, that’s
called “Wagashi”. I really love it. I
think we can see many Japanese spirit, creativity, delicacy and Japanese beauty
for example, in it. It’s different from sweets like candies or cookies which we
have in daily life. Usually, Wagashi is
more expensive than them. Also, Wagashi
is closely related to the four seasons. In spring, there are lots of Wagashi shaped cherry blossoms or other
flowers. In autumn, there are Wagashi
shaped autumn leaves or full moon. Therefore, most of it created in particular seasons.
This is
my favorite Wagashi of the summer.
It is
sometimes said ”Wagashi is the art and it
touches the five senses. ” And it’s true. We enjoy it by seeing its
appearance, listening its name, smelling and eating it, of course. Feeling from
touch and biting is good senses, too. Some of Wagashi is created by hands respectively.
Wagashi is lovely Japanese food art:)
We can
see how they are created by watching following video.
I hope you’ll be able to enjoy it!
The wagashi has adorable appearance, riot of colors and shape. It is a pity that I've not tried wagashi before. I am looking forward to having great experience to taste them one day since "mamedaifuku" and "minazuki" impress me a lot, especially for their red bean stuffing (￫ܫ￩) By the way, what's the name of your favorite wagashi, looking like fish one.
