This salty manju (steamed bun) wraps smooth red bean paste made from Tokachi azuki beans in a skin of kanbaiko (flour made from roasted glutinous rice), seasoned with salt, a specialty of Ako. It is said to have been a favorite tea sweet of Asano Takumi no Kami Naganori, the lord of Ako domain. It comes in white and matcha, and the shelf life is about 25 days.
