A package arrived via the refrigerated transport courier. My friend Toru, in Sendai who came to visit recently sent me some Sendai omiyage (souvenir): Zunda Mochi. I had first had this sweet when I came to Japan and visited Toru in Sendai. It was so good I had to order a second helping! Zunda mochi is mochi covered in a sweet paste of young green soybeans.
