Kanetatsu has crafted this beautiful black soybean jam using only local black soybeans grown in the Sakushu area of Okayama Prefecture and a touch of granulated sugar. This allows the natural nutty flavors of the soybeans to shine while adding a stunning deep gray color speckled with darker flecks of soybean skin.
Kanetatsu aims to support agricultural producers in the Tsuyama area of Okayama by creating products that utilize local goods. The company works primarily with rice, soybeans, wheat, and grapes, which are staple crops in the region, but is also expanding to peaches and processed foods. They also run a training program to support future farmers.
Suggested uses: A delicious spread for crackers, toast, or sandwiches. Try adding it to your yogurt and ice cream. It can also be used in traditional Japanese sweets, such as yokan. Try dissolving it in warm milk to make a black soybean latte!

I couldn’t quite imagine what this would be like and the first time I had it on my toast in the morning I thought it‘s nice but nothing too outrageous. Over the following days it quietly grew on me and I‘m sad it’s gone now. It has a more subtle sweetness compared to fruit jam and in a way it also reminded me of nut creams, just more mellow. It definitely was unusual but I loved it!
