Toraya uses a variety called "Erimo Shouzu" grown in Tokachi, Hokkaido. Especially in Tokachi, where there is a large difference in temperature between day and night, red beans with a rich flavor, color, and texture are grown. White azukiWhite azuki is a rare raw material that is easily affected by the climate and its production is limited. The white azuki that Toraya mainly uses is a unique variety called "Fuku-Tora Shiro" *. It is cultivated by hand from sowing to harvesting, and is mainly produced in Gunma and Ibaraki prefectures. The history of Toraya's white azuki cultivation dates back to 1927, when the 15th owner, Takeo Kurokawa, entrusted the cultivation to the Tone County Agricultural Association (the predecessor of the Agricultural Cooperative Association) in Gunma Prefecture. In February 2018, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries registered the white azuki variety as "Fukutora Shiro. In February 2018, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries registered the white azuki as "Fukutora Shiro", the first time a variety of azuki has been registered by the private sector. Brown sugarBrown sugar, which has a unique flavor, is made by boiling down the juice of sugar cane and contains many minerals. Toraya uses brown sugar from Iriomote Island, which is one of the "Okinawa brown sugars" (see note) and has a round and gentle taste. The brown sugar is used in various confections, including Omokage, our standard yokan. This refers to the brown sugar made from 100% sugar cane in the eight islands of Okinawa (Iriomote Island, Yonaguni Island, Kohama Island, Hateruma Island, Iheya Island, Aguni Island, Tarama Island, and Ie Island). AgarAgar-agar, an indispensable ingredient in yokan, is a traditional Japanese food made from seaweed such as tengusa. The natural agar used at Toraya is made in the traditional way at designated factories in the Ina region of Nagano Prefecture and the Ena region of Gifu Prefecture, which are cold mountainous areas with little rain or snow. Several types of seaweed with different characteristics are blended together to achieve the quality (viscosity, etc.) specified by Toraya. ---------------Payment--------------- We accept PayPal only.
