wagashi

Having a (hopefully) brief obsession with wagashi atm. There's surprisingly little english information on this subject. Instead of just shoving the merger info that I find into an instapaper folder, I'm posting it here to share so you can all drool with me :D

The best textbook for wagashi apparently

Wagashi by Mitsuo Yabu

just take my money..except its LE sigh

Useful blogs:

• http://blog.wagashi-net.de it's absolutely infuriating that every link is broken
• https://washokufood.blogspot.ca/2008_02_01_archive.html a ton of links
• http://wagashipix.tumblr.com 
• http://matsuewagashi.blogspot.ca/2010/07/ingredients.html

Maybe I'll start by making yokan, it seems by far the easiest and doesn't require tracking down specialized ingredients.
