[Nagano, Zenkoji Temple] Kanten Papa, whose base is in the landlocked Nagano Prefecture
#0yentravelnovember
Why is Kantenpapa, which uses seaweed harvested from the sea as its ingredient, based in Nagano Prefecture, a landlocked prefecture?
-
It's because Nagano Prefecture's winter climate, with its extremely cold nights and many sunny days, is well suited to the traditional method of making agar by freezing and melting tokoroten.
-
Today, in addition to the mainstay jelly and bavarois, there is a wide variety of products, including items with hardcore fans such as yokan and onion soup.
It's also a great souvenir from Nagano Prefecture.
-
My favorite is definitely the coffee jelly. It's always delicious no matter when you eat it.
