The “Great Hokkaido Exhibition,” a gathering of Hokkaido gourmet foods not easily found in the Kansai region, will be held at the Abeno Harukas Kintetsu Main Store for the first time in a year and a half! First, let’s take a look at the first phase, from April 21 (Wed) to 27 (Tue).

Feature points for the first phase (April 21 (Wed.) to 27 (Tue.))
For the first issue, we are featuring sweets that use our buyers’ favorite “Anko”!

Anko (sweet bean paste) sweets using the brand-name azuki bean “Shumari” are now available.
“Shumari” is a rare variety that accounts for only about 10% of the total red beans produced in Hokkaido due to its difficult production. It is characterized by its small size, beautiful vermilion color, elegant aroma and pale purple color when processed into red bean paste.
An omelet with cream, Shumari sweet bean paste and plump, sweet Kanoko beans sandwiched between a soft sponge, available only at the Kintetsu Main Store. The photo shows the “Shumari Anko and Kanoko Beans Pure Raw Omelet” (540 yen, tax included) from “Maiko no Madeleine.

Caramel Zakka Store (Sweets Shop) also offers sweets made with “koji fermented bean paste” produced by Shibuya Brewery in Honbetsu-cho, Hokkaido!
The “Hokkaido Kinako Parfait” (781 yen, tax included) on the left of the photo, made with Koji Fermented Bean Paste made by Shibuya Jozo in Honbetsu-cho, Hokkaido, and the “Muzukuru Suru Kinako Filled Soft” (451 yen, tax included) on the right of the photo will be available for the first time only at the Kintetsu Main Store.

The first edition will also feature Hokkaido’s soul food, Zanghi (Fried Chicken). With the cooperation of the Hokkaido Zanghi Federation, “Nubukuro’s Zanghi” (100g, 401 yen, tax included) from “Chinese Cuisine Nubukuro” will be on sale, and “Zanghi-friendly Beer”, a local beer that goes perfectly with Zanghi, will also make its Kansai debut!
