Kusamochi
A beloved sweet treat from Kaizu City
About Kusamochi
Kusamochi (草餅, Kusamochi) is a cherished specialty of Kaizu City.
This delightful mochi is infused with the natural aroma and flavor of yomogi, a type of Japanese mugwort. The dough, made using fresh yomogi, has a wonderfully soft and tender texture that makes it irresistible.
Inside the mochi, you'll find a generous filling of high-quality sweet azuki bean paste, creating a perfect harmony of flavors. The combination of the fragrant yomogi mochi and the rich sweetness of the azuki paste highlights the carefully selected ingredients in each bite.
In Kaizu City, you'll find many shops offering kusamochi made with natural yomogi. Be sure to try this delightful treat when you visit the area!
