Prepare to be amazed by these KUZU Starch Japanese Polvoron! These delicate, melt-in-your-mouth cookies are made with Japanese rice flour and KUZU Starch, both from Nara Prefecture.
KUZU Starch is a rare ingredient because it is so difficult to harvest and to produce. It can take many weeks to fully dig a KUZU root out from the soil, and it takes 10 kg of KUZU root to make only 1 kg of KUZU Starch through a skilled process. KUZU Starch Japanese Polvoron is a gluten-free Polvoron made from such rare and unique Japanese KUZU Starch and Rice.
We've prepared two flavors, each focusing on unique crops from Nara Prefecture. These two exquisite flavors are:
Green Tea: The Green Tea is nurtured by cool mornings, warm evenings, and rich soil, which contribute to its unique aromatic essence. This environment allows the tea leaves to develop a clean, nourishing flavor and a refreshing, relaxing aroma.
ASUKA Ruby Strawberry: Indulge in the vibrant, sweet-tart perfection of the Red Jewel, the ASUKA Ruby Strawberry. These strawberries are from Asuka Village in Nara Prefecture. They are famous for their brilliant color, juicy texture, and perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. They're so special that they're rarely found outside of Nara.
KUZU Starch Japanese Polvoron is more than just a cookie; it’s an experience, a combination of Eastern flavors and Western confection. These are designed to pair perfectly with a warm cup of Japanese green tea, creating a moment of pure bliss. Treat yourself to this unique and delightful confection today!
