A thin sheet of "sliced yokan" like sliced cheese was released on October 4th at the confectionery store "Kameya Yoshinaga" in Kyoto. Available at stores and online shops.
An item that makes it easy to make "yokan toast" by placing it on bread and baking it. One product contains 3 flavors of bean paste, raspberry, and sweet potato, and the price is 650 yen (excluding tax).
Try crushing it immediately.
When toasted, it melts and looks delicious.
Before eating, I thought, "Isn't it almost the same as Ogura toast?", But it's completely different. You can enjoy the uniquely sticky and melty mouthfeel of yokan and the concentrated rich sweetness. After all it is a sweet, and it has a more elaborate taste than Ogura toast. The aroma of poppy seeds goes well with bread!
Raspberries have a sweet and sour taste that matches the elegant sweetness of white bean paste, and sweet potatoes have a Western-style taste like sweet potatoes. Not only bread but also croissants can be sandwiched between them! The butter flavor makes it even more rich, and it's no longer a sweet.
Even if you put it in a croissant ◎
It looks delicious when combined with jam or butter, or layered with cheese to make a sweet and sour toast. If you like yokan, please give it a try!
