Risinjumi

Risinjumi, also known as "risin," is a traditional Japanese confectionery made from rice flour, sugar, and water. It is a popular snack in Japan, often enjoyed as a sweet treat or used as a topping for other desserts. Risinjumi is typically white in color and has a chewy texture, making it a favorite among both children and adults. The process of making risinjumi involves mixing the ingredients together and then cooking the mixture until it thickens. Once cooled, the risinjumi is often shaped into small, round balls or other decorative forms. It can be found in various forms, including plain risinjumi, flavored varieties with added ingredients like matcha or cinnamon, and even risinjumi with fillings such as red bean paste. Risinjumi is not only a delicious snack but also a cultural symbol of Japanese confectionery, reflecting the country's rich culinary heritage.
