A local confectionery from Kagoshima Prefecture. It is a type of chimaki (a type of rice dumpling) and is the closest to the original chimaki. Originally made at home, it was more of a staple food than a sweet, and was used as portable food for Satsuma soldiers since ancient times. Glutinous rice is piled onto bamboo skin, wrapped tightly, and tied in two or three places with bamboo skin. Meanwhile, camphor root is burned to make ash, and the supernatant lye is made from this. The glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo skin is soaked in the supernatant for a day and night, then boiled for about four hours to produce a translucent candy-colored mochi. The mochi goes well with soybean flour and brown sugar syrup.

鹿児島県の郷土菓子。粽(ちまき)の一種であり、もっとも粽の原型に近い。本来は家庭でつくられたもので、菓子というよりは主食の性格をもち、古くから薩摩兵児(さつまへこ)の携行食として用いられた。竹皮に糯米(もちごめ)をといで盛り、よくくるんで2、3か所を竹皮で縛る。一方、クスの根を焼いて灰をつくり、これから灰汁(あく)の上澄み液をつくっておく。竹皮包みのもち米を上澄み液に一昼夜浸したあと、4時間ほどゆでると、飴(あめ)色半透明の餅(もち)に仕上がる。餅には、きな粉と黒糖蜜(とうみつ)があう。 [沢 史生] [参照項目] | |鹿児島県©鹿児島市"> あくまき 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
