This time, I visited "Tofu-an Yamanaka," a tofu specialty store located just 3 minutes on foot from Naiku-mae Station! Since opening in 2003, it has continuously served local and tourist customers, bustling in the Oharaicho area. The shop is popular for "Okara" donuts and soft-serve ice cream that you can enjoy while taking a walk!
The Birth of "Tofu-an Yamanaka"
"I want to make tofu that utilizes the delicious water from the Isuzugawa River." This desire is what started Tofu-an Yamanaka.
With just three simple ingredients: water, soybeans, and nigari, we believe that the most important thing is to put our heart into "selection and dedication."
The "okara" produced during tofu making can’t be wasted. With a sense of "mottainai," we made "okara donuts" for our children, and they were a big hit.
That’s how "Unohana donuts" began. While they are often called "tofu donuts," they are actually made from "okara."
Menu Ordered This Time
“Unohana Donuts”
In appearance, they are simple donuts. When I took a bite, the fluffy and gentle dough had a very light texture. I could easily eat several of these because they are crispy.
Made from soy milk and okara, these donuts are a healthy option that's also great for women. They make good souvenirs! The taste is not overly sweet and easy to eat.
In addition, there are two types of healthy donuts: Unohana Donuts and Unohana Andonuts. Both have a chewy and fluffy texture with a moderate sweetness. They also sell rich yet refreshing soft-serve ice cream, as well as tofu, pudding, and other products made with natural vegetarian nigari, using water from the Isuzugawa River and domestically grown soybeans.
If you visit Okage Yokocho, be sure to stop by!
Once again, Harapeko-chan is completely satisfied!
Thank you for the meal.
