History and Origins

The soil in the west of the mountains is devoted to producing soybeans, and it has been growing in wheat and beans for a long time. A good bean with a pleasant aroma and a sweet flavor, and a bean that was grown in the Nishiyama area, is appropriately named "Saiyama's Giant Bean." Also, in the crypt region, flower beans are a special product, and they grow the "Huto Tobazu" that is considered to be a suitable breeding ground for more than 800 meters above sea level. Highland flower beans have a black and purple color and are also known as purple. It's a large grain that tastes good and is made to boil beans and sweets. The "Snap Bean" is a local dish that is eaten in Nagano Prefecture and Tokyo, including Niigata Prefecture and ZXXX080X and ZXX0Q0Q027X, and is also used for the new month's cooking. It's boiled blue beans and soaked in the soft, salted juice. In Nagano Prefecture, you can make a saddle bean. The green bean is a kind of green bean with the look of a horse on its back, so it's now called a saddle bean. There are also places where they are called "Nazu beans" because it tastes like a glue. This unique flavor, the dusted flavor of the beans and the rich taste, is so clear that the beans themselves are so delicious that they are eaten with a simple taste of boiling. It's getting harder to get and produce fewer and harder these days.
