In this sweet, Japanese mugwort is kneaded into the rice cake and wrapped with mashed sweetened red bean paste. The combination of the salty Japanese mugwort rice cake and the sweet red bean paste is very good. It is soft and delicious. Japanese mugwort contains a lot of dietary fiber and is good for health.
