Japanese sweets are also known as: Wagamama Preface: From the time of its birth, Japan has been known as the "Land of Peace". Until now, the Japanese word "washi" is often used to represent Japan, and anything with this word in it has some relation to Japanese culture. For example, washi (Japanese paper), kimono, and wagashi (Japanese food). Wagashi, or Japanese confectionery, has been a favorite of people throughout the ages. What are Japanese sweets? Soybeans are one of the main ingredients of Japanese sweets. They are boiled to make a filling and mixed with sweet sugar to give them an extremely sweet flavor. The filling is usually wrapped in rice cake and made into a variety of beautiful sweets. There is also a typical Japanese confection called "Zenzi", which is made by adding small beans and rice cakes to a thick, sweet soup. Yokan is also a typical Japanese confectionery. "Rakugo" is a sweet confection made by pressing sugar into a wooden mold, and does not contain any pinto beans. That's a lot of information, but these are just a few. There are local specialties in all parts of Japan, so what are you waiting for? Let's go on a journey to find them. History: Wagashi is said to have been brought to Japan from China. In the Nara period, it was a flour-coated and deep-fried tango used in rituals; Japanese wagashi masters worshiped a Chinese man named Lin Jinyin as their grandmaster, and the earliest wagashi stores appeared in Tokyo. In ancient times, natural fruits and fruits of trees were considered as "wakame". After that, the technology of processing the grain "Rice cake and doughnut" is produced, and the sweetness of the flax chiya is produced, and it is produced by using the sugar of the American bean sprouts by spreading and cooking such as "Gampo stem frying" (ra) *** This sensitive word is filtered ****. The technology such as the kneading (the Tang dynasty confectionary was made in the continent by the Tang dynasty ambassador from the time forward) was brought in, and the powder was raised with the oil, etc., and the technology was conveyed, and it seemed to be honored as a god of the offering in a lot of cases. Soon, the habit of drinking tea was developed. At that time, the confectionary also became a cohesive program, and the fruit-making technology advanced by leaps and bounds. At the same time, the southern confectionary was also imported, and kasuteira, muffin, bisukauto, kumihira candy, and akihira candy were introduced, but these confectionary practices contributed a lot to the development of Japanese confectionary. It produced a lot of "Kyoto confectionary" that centered on Kyoto and "Kami-confectionary" that centered on Edo in the Edo period, and the technology of Japanese confectionary manufacturing developed greatly, and the modern Japanese confectionary was almost the same as the thing that was made of straw. Moreover, it became the Meiji period, and Western confectionery was spread, but it had a big impact on the growth of Japanese confectionery. It can be said that the technology of Japanese confectionery that was influenced by the Tang confectionery, the southern barbarian confectionery, and the Western confectionery in addition to the development of the grain processing technology in the ancient times was nurtured in the unique culture and the tradition of Japan, and it is welcomed to this day. There are also things that the Japanese accept new technology, absorb it as their own, and create a new Japanese original Japanese confectionary from it. Types: 1.

Oh, after the introduction now to enjoy the picture. Japanese food: onigiri, hand rolls (a kind of sushi with seaweed wrapped around the outside), tempura, meatloaf, ramen, soba, sushi, and salads. First of all, I would like to introduce what I consider to be the worst food in Japan. 5 stars - Soba This is the most most most most most most. This is the worst soba I've had in years. I can't believe that such a tasteless, flavorless noodle has survived for so long, and was the subject of the famous article "A Bowl of Soba". The soba I ate was on a bamboo partition, no soup, no flavor, still cold (of course this is cold noodles), seasoned with a small dish of soy sauce (eating dumplings that kind of small dish), I ate it when I thought - I guess the Japanese ate this as "remembering the bitter sweet", not even to give salt. I thought when I ate it - I guess the Japanese eat it as a "reminder of the bitter sweetness", and they don't even bother with salt, so the soy sauce is gone in a couple of dips. If you eat soba noodles, you will find that the cheapest 50 cents a packet of instant noodles are delicious. 4 Stars - Japanese Bean Stuffed Bread (あんばん) Of course this is my own feeling - it's hard to eat. I didn't feel anything but sweetness with the Japanese bean stuffed bread. It's so sweet that you don't want to take a second bite after the first one. First of all, when I was in China I loved sweet food because I ate too much of it and now I have a mouth full of bug teeth. When I came to Japan, I realized that what I used to eat was not considered sweet. I feel like everything in Japan is sweet, yakitori is sweet, meatloaf is sweet, teppan beef is sweet, dim sum is sweet, Japanese soy sauce is sweet, and all Chinese food is sweet. I'm starting to hate sweet food. 3 stars - Japanese Chinese food The flavor of Japanese Chinese food has changed, but it's all sweetened anyway. Yokohama China Street, 90% of the Chinese food, no time can not go, Chinese food in Japan is more expensive, the most important thing is the taste and とてもへん, can not stand. The most important thing is the flavor とてもへん, I can't stand it. 2 stars on the bad food index - Japanese ramen (not really bad, just average) Of course, it depends on what kind of store you eat. I like to eat noodles in "soup", but Japanese ramen is usually in broth, which in my own words means "broth is not good enough to make you lose your appetite". However, there are some stores that have good broth, but it depends on luck. There are so many noodle stores in Japan. I think there are more average tasting food, but that has to do with my personal preference, I like to eat food with a strong flavor. Here are some recommendations for good food. There are a lot of things that don't taste good in Japan, but there are also a lot of things that taste good. Japanese ice cream, even the cheapest flavor is very "good", I personally prefer "matcha flavor" and "vanilla flavor", the price is 150 yen or less, available at convenience stores. The price is 150 yen or less. I'm not a big fan of H?agen-Dazs, as I find the flavor too strong, and although some people say that H?agen-Dazs ice cream has a "texture", it's not to my liking. There are also ice cream stores that sell ice cream, which is also good, but a large cup of ice cream is usually about 400 yen. Japanese takoyaki is also available in China, but I think it tastes very different because of the different sauces used and the sweetness of the sauce here, so I think it's better in Japan. Japanese Tempura, although it's deep fried, but the flavor goes into it, and with the special soy sauce, it's quite tasty. Chocolate and chocolate-related snacks from Japan have the same "right" flavor as ice cream. Japanese fruit juice. Japan is all about the original flavor of everything, so fruit juice is generally unsweetened, generally very sour taste is very sour bitter, but because it is the original flavor, very nutritious. (Here by the way, other very pure food: Japan's large cans of yogurt, sugar is another additional, although the flavor is very pure, but without sugar is very difficult to eat! Japanese rice crackers (similar to Want Want snowcakes), no sugar added, only a little bit of salt added, almost no flavor. Japanese sour plums, super duper unbeatable sour!!!! Remember, even if the instructions inside the added sugar, but also can not eat the sweet flavor, can be used to refresh the brain plus catch people, haha.) The Japanese style omelette rice tasted pretty good and is recommended. I enjoyed the onigiri, and the sushi was not bad either. Japanese candy are also full of delicious, because the flavor is pure, huh. I like fruit juice fudge, recommended. Finally, we recommend the Japanese McDonald's "エビ (shrimp) hamburger". Shrimp patties fried very tender and tender, there are a lot of large shrimp inside, highly recommended. There are fries also feel better than I eat in the country, the rest with the domestic will not be different. McDonald's in Japan belongs to the cheap food, Japan's ordinary set meal of about 500 yen, Japan's benedict is generally about 600 yen, ramen 700 yen or more, sushi is more expensive.
