Peanuts Monaka
Japanese notation "ぴーなっつ最中"
Chiba is famous for its peanuts. Nagomi no Yoneya” in Chiba Prefecture made “Peanuts Monaka”.
The character depicted on this package is called “Pi-chan,” which was created after the appearance of Peanuts Monaka.
The surrealistic expression on his face is quite irresistible. There is also a stuffed character that appears at events.
The shape of a peanut is imitated. The texture is well reproduced.
When I broke open the peanut-shaped monaka, I found a brownish red bean paste inside. It is peanut red bean paste. It is made from sweetened peanuts, and it is a very complete and delicious red bean paste.
The savory aroma of peanuts and the sweetness of beans give it a simple but gentle and full flavor. The bean paste has such a natural flavor that you may feel that it can be used with anything.
