Along with ice cream, summer staple sweets and shaved ice. While there are many popular shops where you can line up, recently, even household shaved ice machines for professional use that cost more than 10,000 yen are on sale.
The one at my house is a common manual type, but I tried using a rare jam instead of syrup to feel a little rich.
Introducing this time is "Double Fruit Jam" from Austria's long-established jam maker Dalbo. It is characterized by the limit of pulp content (70%) that is recognized as jam, and it is said that it is used for breakfast in luxury hotels all over the world.
When you scoop up with a spoon, the flesh is always full. With its refreshing sweetness, you can feel the acidity and flavor firmly, giving an impression close to that of a fruit sauce. It is usually delicious as it is.
"Sour cherry" and "Rose apricot" are recommended for shaved ice. Both are sweet and sour, and when diluted with ice, they become like rich juices and are excellent!
"Tyrolean blueberries" have a rich texture that makes you feel as if you just crushed blueberries. It has a modest acidity and sweetness and goes well with yogurt. Both jams are easy to use besides toast such as panques and ice cream.
I tried three types this time, but personally I liked the sour cherry shaved ice the most. All of them have a really luxurious taste, so fruit lovers will definitely want to have them. How about a bottle of Dalbo jam that is delicious even if you eat it as it is? You can purchase it at Amazon.co.jp for around 500 yen.
