Yokan is a thick jellied sweet made of azuki bean paste, kanten and sugar. The common yokan is a black color, but this is transparent orange. This is because the jam of the loquat is contained. And this yokan made of white bean jam instead of normal azuki bean paste.
This yokan is cooked in Tomiura district of Chiba. In this district, a climate is warm, and a delicious loquat is made.I do not know whether a loquat is eaten any place other than Japan. The loquat is fruit of the early summer. It is very refined and smells sweet subtly.
For a foreign person, yokan may be strange food. But, Please try it if you have the chance.
