"Rice flour sweets tend to get dry...?" For those with that kind of image, we highly recommend trying Sangen-an's rice flour castella. The secret to this castella lies in the special rice flour made from the special variety "Konadamon" from Ayabe, Kyoto Prefecture, produced by the gluten-free rice flour specialty store "KOKU". Its characteristics differ slightly from the rice you usually eat with Koshihikari, making it suitable for rice flour, with less stickiness and a slightly flaky texture when cooked. By using a special method called "wet airflow grinding," which minimizes starch damage during the rice flour production process, the rice achieves an astonishingly moist texture and maximizes the natural gentle flavor of the rice. Thanks to KOKU rice flour, the traditional image of rice flour sweets is so soft that they turn out so soft. You can enjoy the gentle sweetness unique to rice and the fluffy melt-in-your-mouth texture, which is a bit different from wheat castella. Perfect as a treat for yourself or as a gift for those who care about their health. This is a must-have product that we confidently recommend not only to those with wheat allergies or those living gluten-free lifestyles, but also to everyone. Perfect for dessert after meals or as a companion for tea time. Enjoy our carefully crafted rice flour castella to your heart's content, safe to enjoy. *** Manufactured using equipment shared with products containing wheat, milk, and soybeans. ** **KOKU** This is a specialty store for gluten-free rice flour, made from specially cultivated rice grown with 100% organic fertilizer by local contracted farmers.
