Niigata Komachi
Japanese notation "新潟小町(黒糖蒸しどら)"
”Niigata Komachi” made by “Kikuya” a confectioner in Niigata City, is a brown sugar flavored dorayaki with Gyuhi(soft rice cake). The package design is beautiful with a vivid Japanese style design.
1個あたりがかなり大きいパッケージですが、どんなお菓子が入っているのかというと、大きな半月形のどら焼きです。
Two pieces of gyuhi protrude from the sides.” The crust of the “steamed dorayaki” is brown with a brown sugar tint, and the texture is like a fluffy sponge cake.
The presence of the gyuhi is amazing. The chewy and glossy texture makes a great visual impact.
Inside is azuki bean paste, and the brown sugar aroma wafts softly from the brown sugar kneaded dough. The steamed dorayaki dough is very fluffy and feels more like a sponge cake than a typical dorayaki dough.
The overall sweetness was gentle, and the brown sugar-scented dough was a good match with the gyuhi and azuki red bean paste.
