Visit Taga Taisha ☆ Specialty ☆ Itokiri Mochi
"Itokiri-mochi" is a famous Japanese sweet in Taga-cho, Inukami-gun, Shiga Prefecture ☆
The blue and pink lines are adorable on the white rice cake ♪
The balance between the simple rice cake made only from rice flour and the slightly salty bean paste is exquisitely delicious ☆
Since it is a rice cake made only from rice flour, I told you to eat it today, so I ate it with sake in the middle of the night on the way home from the drive (laughs).
Itokiri-mochi has a long history, and it is surprising that it has its origins in the Mongol invasion about 700 years ago! ️
After enduring the two Mongol invasions and fighting, the Mongol army withdrew.
To celebrate the regained peace, people made offerings to shrines and temples.
Among the offerings to Taga Taisha, there was a blue and red three-line rice cake that imitated the Mongols of Eight, and it was cut with a bow string, so it became known as Itokiri-mochi.
It may have been loved as a symbol of peace because it was cut with a bow string without using a knife.
This year is the year of corona sickness, a sickness that we have never experienced before, but I pray that human beings can overcome it and hope that it will be a bright next year 🙇♂️
In the summer, you can eat thread-cut rice cake shaved ice for a limited time 🍧 There are various other flavors, so it is perfect for a break.
The light thread-cutting rice cake
It ’s the best!
After the annual first visit to the shrine, I would like to ask Mr. Itokiri-mochi to buy itokiri-mochi, but the person above my company suddenly said that he wanted to eat it, so I went to buy it too. On weekdays, the number of customers was sloppy. ❗ It's a difficult time now, but I said to the store that I should do my best ❗
You cannot eat or drink in the store due to the influence of the new corona, but the famous Itoriki mochi is sold in various ways.
The thread cutting ice in the photo is for summer only.
