Recommended dish for new year’s Osechi  おせち料理 ⭐️栗きんとん クチナシの実で金色

https://pin.it/6sijO1TmC

クチナシの実を使った栗きんとんは、鮮やかな黄金色がとってもきれいで、おせち料理の縁起物として親しまれています。

The origin of Kurikinton lies in the chestnut that the Japanese people have been eating since ancient times.

The history of chestnuts is very old, and it is recorded in the “Nihon Shoki” established in the Nara period (720) that the cultivation of chestnuts was encouraged by the Emperor.

At that time, chestnuts were mainly boiled or roasted, and were not considered as sweets, but later a process of “squeezing boiled chestnuts in a 茶巾Chakin was invented, giving rise to the prototype of the current 栗きんとんKurikinton.

The turning point in history came in the late Edo period. It was in Nakatsugawa (now Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture) that became the birthplace of Kurikinton.

At that time, Nakatsugawa, located along the 中山道 Nakasendo, one of the five major highways, was also one of Japan’s leading chestnut-producing areas. Taking advantage of this strength, many confectionery craftsmen in the area started making Kurikinton, and stores selling it were established one after another.

The tree is 1 to 2 meters tall.

クチナシ

There are various theories as to the origin of its name, but one well-known theory is that it came to be called “gardenia” because its fruit does not split open when ripe and its mouth does not open.

The fragrance of the gardenia is one of its main attractions. I love it!

After seeing colorful azaleas, take a 30-minute walk from Nezu to the Ogai Memorial Museum in Sendagi.

It is said that Ogai of old days took a walk
While walking in the quiet residential area of today
You will notice that there are many hills.

That’s why it’s called Dangozaka.団子坂

Finally, I found a cawaii hamburger shop that just opened near the station!

The burgers were delicious, as was the homemade ketchup!

What should I do for the rest of the day in Tokyo?
I recommend this “Tokyo Small Town Tour”

The azalea festival is in April.
Nezu Shrine is always a good place for photos!
And there is a relaxed atmosphere

In Japan, higanbana (higanbana) is a flower that grows in clusters alongside roads and on banks, heralding the arrival of autumn. When it comes into bloom, only the stem grows quickly and bears a single red flower, followed by the sprouting of thin leaves. For a long time, it was considered an unlucky flower in Japan, as it was planted in cemeteries and was often associated with death.
