Wagashi
Today, I am going to introduce Japanese sweets, wagashi!! Wagashi are traditional Japanese sweets that are typically enjoyed in combination with a cup of green tea . They are made in a wide variety of shapes and consistencies and with diverse ingredients and preparation methods. Wagashi can be enjoyed at selected cafes, restaurants, temples and gardens where green tea is served. They can also be purchased at specialty sweet shops, department stores, supermarkets, convenience stores and food stands. Below are some of my favorite wagashi types: Dango Dango are chewy, small, steamed dumplings made of rice flour. They are typically served skewered three or four to a stick and topped with a sweet sauce or bean paste. Dorayaki Dorayaki consist of sweet bean paste sandwiched between two pancake-like patties. It is also known as the favorite snack of Draemon a popular anime character. Taiyaki Taiyaki are fish-shaped snack
