I really like glutinous rice called “Okowa” as I mentioned in my earlier post. However, the “Okowa” I tried in my earlier post was not that good unfortunately. But this one is good! Just as I expected!!

Please read the post below if you would like to know more about “Okowa”. I wrote some explanation about “Okowa” in this post.

If you first try “Okowa” I recommend you go to a specialty shop or a restaurant for “Okowa” just like “Tagosaku” where I got this.
There are many different tastes/fillings of “Okowa” depending on the season.
The variety of this “Okowa” is pretty standard I think.
| Taste | ★★★★☆ This is “Okowa” just as I expected. When you cook rice it is very important how much water you add in a pot. That really affects the texture when you eat. I prefer less moist cooked rice and this one is just my type. |
| Price | ★★★☆☆ Average. Around 450 yen. |
| Calorie | —– Not sure…I guess not that low… |
| Easy to get? | ★★★★☆ I got this at a building called “Ekinaka”. “Eki” means a station and “naka” means inside. Now you know, “Ekinaka” is located in a train station, in which there are lots of different small shops. I have seen “Tagosaku” in different “Ekinaka” so you will find them as well. |
| Get again? | ★★★★★ Definitely. |
The materials may be changed in the future so
please check by yourself when you try it.

I like edamame! Edamame is soy beans. They are harvested at an early stage of development.
