【No. 1118】Kaki no Tane (柿の種)
Jan 9, 2018 11:28
I'm now eating 柿の種 (kaki no tane), which is one of famous Japanese rice snacks.
柿 (kaki) means "persimmon" and 種 (tane) means "seed," so the literal meaning of 柿の種 is "seeds of a persimmon."
The etymology of "kaki no tane" is very simple -- it is because the shape of this snack is similar to seeds of a persimmon.
It is an orange color, is a bit spicy, and peanuts are often included in the same bag together.
Also, it is often served as a snack with alcohol.
When you come to Japan, please try it once.
