Tsukimi: Enjoying Moon Viewing and Dango


Good afternoon from Tokyo! Were you able to see the Supermoon in your region?

It is said that the moon is the brightest and most beautiful in mid-autumn. To enjoy the beauty of the moon around this time of the year, in Japan, we hold a moon viewing event called "Tsukimi," a tradition brought in from ancient China.

How do Japanese people celebrate Tsukimi? Traditionally, people would admire the round, bright moon quietly, while offering dango (dumplings) and satoimo (taro potatoes) to the moon in an alter. 

To this day, many people still like to eat dango during the Tsukimi season. So here's an easy and delicious dango recipe that you can make at home!

Tofu Dango Dumpling, with two flavors

On a different note, we launched our official Facebook page last week! We are delighted to announce that in just one week, the number of "likes" on our Facebook page has exceeded 100. Thank you for your support!!

If you haven't seen our Facebook page yet, please take this opportunity to visit and "Like" our page. By doing so, you can stay up-to-date on our latest recipes, cooking tips, and much more!
