4 August, Saturday - Saturn day, moon in Pisces,
the 17th day of the 7th lunar month.
I’m still doing the Golden Week Omiyage
series!
Akita Miso.
Koji - Mould rice.
It is used for making Sake or Miso normally.
Of course Koji has become a popular flavouring in Japan.
Akita is here!
Golden week ♡ the longest
vacation period of the year in Japan,
which starts from the end of April, and last
around 5th of May.
People
go back to their hometown or travel abroad in this period.
Oddly,
Golden week never ends without Omiyage (souvenirs) here.
We
exchange Omiyage with friends, siblings, colleagues,
and
neighbours, piling up foods in the kitchen afterwards..
Omiyage
let us know or taste popular products in each region.
Interesting.
