Kinako () is the traditional Japanese name for roasted soybean powder, widely cherished for its nutty aroma, toasty flavour, and smooth, fine texture. Made with 100% Hokkaido-grown soybeans, Yamamoto Kinako delivers an authentic taste of Japan with every spoonful.
Rich in plant-based protein, fibre, folic acid, calcium, and isoflavones, kinako is valued not only for its flavour but also its nutritional benefits. It is commonly used as a topping for mochi, warabi mochi, ice cream, anmitsu, and other traditional sweets, where its earthy depth balances sweetness beautifully.
Versatile beyond confectionery, kinako can be:
Stirred into milk or soy milk
Blended into yogurt, smoothies, or porridge
Added to pancake, cookie, and muffin batters
Enjoyed as a hot drink for a comforting, nostalgic taste
Whether you're recreating Japanese wagashi or exploring kinako's modern uses in health-conscious baking, Yamamoto Kinako offers the purity and quality that Japanese ingredients are known for.
