Ohagi


Ohagi is traditional snack in Japan.

We eat it in ohigan. Ohigan is a term which means 3days before Autumnal Equinox and 3days after it.

Ohagi includes Azuki bean, glutinous rice, sugar and salt. If you eat normal ohagi, you should eat glutinous rice with Azuki. But recently people eat glutinous rice with kinako or sesame, so why don’t you try to eat them too.

My mother and aunt always make it for me. It is so delicious. When I eat it, I’m always full because of the glutinous rice. However, it is sweet, so I can eat as snack.

Japanese believe ginger


Japanese believe ginger is good for health.

I believe that because when I drank ginger soup, I got warmer. Therefore I think it is good for person who has poor circulation.
 
Ginger has strong sterilizing properties, and promotes blood circulation. The component is in seven percent medicine which is used in hospital. Moreover, when it warm up, an effect is more, so when you have a cold, you should drink ginger soup.
