In Kansai region, dorayaki (Japanese dessert consisting of two slices of kasutera [sponge cake] with red bean jam in between) is called 'Mikasa Manju' (bun stuffed with azuki-bean paste), or 'Mikasa yaki' as the shape of dorayaki is similar to that of Mt. Mikasa. なお、関西ではどら焼きの形が三笠山に似ていることから、「三笠まんじゅう」や、「三笠焼き」と呼ばれる。 |
