Documenting my journey of recreating regional food across Japan: Kama Mochi from Iwate

Follow along my journey here!

The original version uses walnuts, but I happen to have a huge bag of pecans at home, and since they’re pretty similar in terms of texture and flavour, I figured I’d use them as a substitute. Hopefully I did the dish justice!

Thanks u/KikoSoujirou, u/Hashimotosannn and u/turnedupside for your advice, hopefully the photos look much clearer this time!
