😋SAKURAMOCHI🌸
It's that most wonderful time of the year...'sakuramochi' (桜餅) in abundance🙌

'Sakuramochi' (桜餅) begin appearing in stores around the time of Hina Matsuri (雛祭り "Doll's Day" - March 3rd) and are eaten throughout the spring.

There are 2 main types of sakuramochi: Kansai-style and Kantō-style.

🌸Kansai sakuramochi, known also as 'Dōmyōji-mochi' (道明寺餅), is made with dōmyōji-ko rice flour (道明寺粉).
🌸Kantō sakuramochi uses shiratama-ko flour (白玉粉) and is also known as 'Chōmeiji-mochi' (長命寺餅).
