Kurimushi Yokan is one of the traditional Japanese sweets- a steamed yokan with chestnuts. It’s made from a mixture of anko (sweet red bean paste), wheat flour, and powdered arrowroot. This Kurimushi Yokan is from Nishimura, one of the most traditional sweet shops in Asakusa, with over 160 years of history. The taste is elegant, smooth, and slightly chewy, and a gentle sweetness. It’s also their signature confection.
