Mini Red Bean & Rice Syrup Cookies [小さな米蜜ビスケットあずき] 90g
Small, bite sized biscuits made with “komemitsu,” a gentle rice based sweetness and umami drawn from traditional rice ingredients such as rice syrup, brown rice amazake, and shio koji. Made with azuki bean skins left from the process of making smooth red bean paste. The biscuits are crisp and lightly toasted, with a mellow sweetness that feels softer and more natural than a typical sugary cookie.
An everyday tea time snack or a quiet finish to a meal. The small format works well for kids' snacks, lunchboxes, and travel, and the gentle sweetness suits people who find Western cookies too rich. Also nice crumbled over vanilla ice cream or yogurt for a quick dessert.
