Harvest comes early to the Tohoku area of northeastern Japan. By October the golden fields have been cut, and the rice is hung from racks or stacked in sheaves to dry in the warm rays of autumn sun. After the long, strenuous days of harvesting, it is the time for relaxing and thanksgiving. The delicious flavor of freshly harvested brown rice gives Mitoku Harvest Moon Crackers their unique, unmatched taste. Slowly and carefully baked three times to ensure their light, crunchy texture, they are then lightly dipped in naturally brewed shoyu. Rich in taste, hearty and satisfying, Harvest Moon Crackers are the finest crackers in Japan.
Ingredients: whole brown rice, naturally brewed shoyu (soy sauce), and black sesame seeds.
Japanese Senbei or Crackers are a unique treat. Baked the old fashioned way in small batches, the Japanese are famous for their delicious crackers whose distinctive taste is due to unique seasonings such as natural soy sauce and traditional rice malt.
