The northern part of Miyagi Prefecture is a treasure trove of roadside stations and farm direct sales stores.
The size of freshly harvested vegetables is ridiculously large, different from the vegetables you see at the supermarket!

However, this time, instead of focusing on such vegetables, we will focus on delicious Japanese sweets found directly from the farm!
Don't underestimate the price of country sweets.
Recently, farm-fresh sweets are secretly gaining popularity as Japanese sweets that even young people are interested in!
This time, let's introduce some farm-fresh sweets that you can eat in northern Miyagi Prefecture!

Rice cake

Mochi is famous from northern Miyagi Prefecture to southern Iwate Prefecture.
In Ichinoseki City, Iwate Prefecture, the mochi culture is so developed that the National Mochi Summit is held every year.
However, Miyagi Prefecture North is not defeated either.
Place the freshly made mochi in a bowl and pour generous amounts of bean paste, yellow flour, zunda, and walnut fillings on top.This is a farm-fresh sweet that can be eaten in a wide range of areas, especially in Wakuya-cho!

The recommended flavor is definitely ``Zunda''.
Be sure to try Miyagi Prefecture's famous ``Zunda Mochi'' straight from the farm!
In addition, you can eat three-colored mochi with three different flavors at the direct-from-the-farm Hananohana Market in Misato Town!
If you're not sure which one to eat, this will come in handy!

INFORMATION

Ganzuki

Ganzuki is a farm-fresh sweet that looks like a chocolate brownie, and is also written as Ganzuki.
It is a local dish that tastes like fluffy sugar steamed bread, but because it contains soy sauce, it has a Japanese-style flavor.
Its unique name is said to come from the sesame seeds scattered on the round dough to resemble the moon and geese. It is spread mainly in northern Miyagi Prefecture and as far north as Iwate Prefecture, so you can eat it directly from the farm in each region.

The ganzuki sold at the direct-from-the-farm farm ``Golden no Sato'' attached to the hot spring facility ``Wakuya Tenpyo-yu'' is a rare type that is densely packed rather than fluffy.
The texture is just like gateau chocolate.
Whether you are trying Ganzuki for the first time or have eaten it many times, why not give it a try?
