Kuromameni 黒豆煮

History and Origins

The black peas in the mountain are said to be the best quality in the black beans, large grains, sugary, and black beans due to the high temperature of the day and day. It's very nice to have a small grain that's too sweet and so hard to break. It is said that the black peas from Tsukayama's mountain came from many sources, but the black peas from outside, which were introduced from the Miyagi district during the war period, were introduced to local climate and then spread to surrounding villages. During the Edo, when the Domitian Koyama presented the black pea to the general, some of the stories remain that he was highly praised. The black beans that have been sweetened are old-fashioned and have been known as a New Year's dish, but in recent years the health boom has grown and the polyphen in black peas has grown to be consumed over the year.

When It Is Eaten

In addition to being eaten mainly as part of New Year's food, there are other families that will serve the flavor lightly these days and keep it prepared for the whole year. By October, young "black beans" were harvested, and they were appreciated as the season's taste.

How It Is Eaten

The dried black beans are boiled in water and boiled with a weak fire with soy sauce, sugar, salt, and so forth. You can also set aside black bean soup for sweets such as black beans or steamed bread.
