NAMISATO Kinako is a traditional Japanese roasted soybean powder made from 100% Japanese-grown soybeans. Carefully roasted and finely ground, it has a warm, nutty aroma, mellow soybean flavour and smooth finish that pair especially well with Japanese sweets and pastry.
Kinako is traditionally sprinkled over warabi mochi, dango, ohagi, daifuku and other wagashi, often together with sugar or kuromitsu syrup. Because this kinako is completely unsweetened, you can adjust the sweetness and intensity to suit each recipe.
Its roasted flavour also works beautifully beyond traditional Japanese desserts. Incorporate it into cakes, cookies, bread, pastry cream, mousse, ganache, chocolate, ice cream or gelato, or blend it into milk, lattes, smoothies and yogurt.
