Craving Japanese sweets
Wednesday May 21, 2008
I crave Japanese sweets once in a while. Since I grew up eating them, I even have a nostalgic feeling for them. I made "daifuku" today, which is made from rice flour stuffed with anko (red bean paste). They were very yummy! You can also put strawberries inside of anko and make "ichigo daifuku". There are several other varieties of daifuku. It is funny, when I am in Japan, I never think about making Japanese sweets at home, because they are available everywhere and quite reasonably priced, too.

The way you describe daifuku, I feel that indeed its a very delicious food. I myself is very fond of Japanese culture and I want to thank you for the effort you have exerted for those who are eager to learn Japanese language. I became interested in the Japanese culture since I am very fond of watching anime… Ever since I am a child. Now, I’m 18 and still very eager to learn new things about Japan.
tokorode, May I ask you one thing? In an anime, a character had ask about her favorite food. She said it was sweet, pink and very unyu? could it be ichigo daifuku? Sumimasen, you don’t need to answer it. It’s just my curiosity..
Arigato gozaimasu!!!
