ππ₯FRUIT AND VEGππ
There is something quite adorable about traditional sweets that mimic (or incorporate) seasonal fruit and vegetables.
For a few short weeks in May each year Toraya (γ¨γγ) produce a plump little sweet called 'nasubi-mochi' (γͺγγ³ι€
'eggplant mochi')π

Inside the cheerful little eggplant is white bean paste mixed with black sesame seeds, mimicking the flesh of the fruitπ #γͺγγ³ι€ #eggplant #Toraya #γ¨γγ #Kyoto #δΊ¬ι½ #wagashi #εθε #Japan
