OMIYAGE: Monaka

This is a mini version of a classic Japanese sweet filled with red bean paste and sandwiched between thin mochi wafers. This particular one hails from Sendai City, but you can find them most anywhere in Japan.

    Yay! I love monaka. When we were children, my siblings and I had a silly little song we sang every time we had some.
