Kintsuba (き ん つ ば or 金 鍔) or kintsubayaki is a Japanese cake wagashi type
of red peanut butter wrapped in flour. The dough of peanut butter wrap is made
from wheat diluted with water and then diulen into thin slabs. This cake is
usually round, and the surface is baked on a plate (a flat pan) that has been
smeared with cooking oil.
This cake is
named kintsubayaki because it looks like tsuba (hand protection) on the katana
handrail from the Edo period.
The
square-shaped Kintsuba called rigid kintsuba (角 き ん つ ば, literal meaning: kintsuba square) was created
in the Meiji era. Red peanut butter is thickened with gelatin to harden, then
cut into pieces square. The peanut butter slices are then dipped into a dough
made from flour mixed with water. Kintsuba square is also cooked by means of
baked on a flat pan.
Imo kintsuba (芋 き ん つ ば) or satsuma kintsuba (薩摩 き ん つ ば) is a kintsuba whose cake contents (Japanese:
an, 餡) are made
from sweet potato or imo yōkan. The shape is also square.
