"Wagashi (和菓子)"
🥮 The Traditional Japanese Sweets 🥮
"Wagashi have been nurtured and developed within Japanese life and culture for over a millennium, and thus Japanese life is strongly reflected in them."
"There is no standard definition of
Wagashi (和菓子), and consequently there
are many kinds that appear similar but actually differ slightly from one
another. Wagashi (和菓子) are traditional
Japanese sweets that are typically enjoyed in combination with a cup of
green tea. The roots of Wagashi can be found over two-thousand years
ago, when nuts were ground into a powdery state and then rolled after
removal of impurities (a food that later became dango) and when mochi,
said to be Japan’s oldest processed food, was made."
