Grilled Daifuku

In Kyoto, we found the greatest daifuku ever made. First off, it’s grilled, so the outside is crispy with soft mochi under it and warm anko on the inside. Wow, I’m all hot and bothered now, ha haaaa…

There were 3 flavors – Regular, Matcha, and Sweet Potato. All equally good, all equally worth masturbating over. Let’s just put it this way, I don’t think I will be able to go back to Kyoto for awhile without changing my face, or wearing gloves.

Cutlural Note:

1. Daifuku – (Die-foo-koo) – Mochi with anko inside
2. Mochi – (Moe-chee) – Pounded rice cake. The STANDARD does NOT have ice cream inside.
3. Anko – (On-co.) – Sweetened red bean paste. Similar to refried beans.
