These cookies (known as "yatsuhashi") are a traditional sweet and Kyoto's most popular souvenir ("omiyage"). Made from a combination of rice flour, cinnamon sugar and roasted soybean powder ("kinako"), they have a pleasing texture and wonderful nutty flavor. To make these cookies, the dough is rolled into an elegantly curved rectangle and baked until crisp, giving the cookies their signature shape resembling a Japanese harp ("koto").

yatsuhashi!

I always try to buy yatsuhashi during my rare visits to Kyoto and it's such a gift to be able to buy them from Kokoro. This brand is particularly good-- always fresh and crisp and not too sweet. Usually buy for gifts but I always save a package for my family.

Crunchy & Yummy!

They are very crunchy and cinnamon-y. I loved these as a teen, and even though it's been 50 years since I tasted them, they immediately brought me back to Kyoto! Yummy & mildly sweet, but do be ready for the crispy texture.
