Chinbin are a local treat from the trpoical islands of Okinawa in Japan. These thin, chewy and sweet crepes are made using local black sugar known as kokuto which adds its signature licorice sweet flavor, and mochiko (glutinous rice flour) which provides a delightful chewy texture. Only eight islands in Okinawa still produce pure, traditional kokuto from the local sugar cane crop, with each having its own distinguishable flavor based on the growing environment and cultivation methods. These are truly a local treat!

DISCLAIMER:

We provide ingredients and common allergens based on the packaging as a reference only. Please consume with caution based on your own individual health concerns as we cannot guarantee the presence or lack of certain ingredients, allergens and/or animal products.

Suggested Uses: In a bowl, whisk 400ml (1⅔ cup) of water with the package of chinbin mix. Heat a frying pan and add enough cooking oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Over medium heat add one ladle of batter and spread into a flat circle. Once the surface of the chinbin is dry and forms holes, flip and cook the other side. Remove from the frying pan and let cool slightly before rolling into a tube. Top with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or chocolate sauce for added flavor. The mix can also be used to make other sweets and baked goods such as dorayaki (mini Japanese red bean pancakes), madeleines, and muffins.
Substitutions: Use to make licorice sweet crepes or in batter to make madeleines, muffins, donuts and other baked goods.
Recipes: Okinawa Kokuto Mushipan (Black Sugar Steamed Muffins)
