Goma mushi manju (black sesame button)

April 21, 2012 By: Mai Truong Category: Houston, Japanese, One shot, sweet snacks and desserts, Vegan


Technically, ごま蒸し饅頭 (goma mushi manjuu) means Steamed Sesame Bun (as a friend told me), but I’m a firm believer that proper nouns, i.e., names, cannot be translated without losing some of their meaning. Since there is no sufficient translation already, I might as well make the English name suitable to describe the object instead of sticking to the literal translation. Hence, to distinguish these little buns from the gazillion of buns in the Far East, I shall call them “buttons”.

Flaky, multi-super-thin-layered dough. Semi-sweet black sesame paste. Adorable, in every sense of the word.

Here’s the label, for those who can read Japanese:

  1. The very root of your writing whilst appearing reasonable in the beginning, did not really settle properly with me after some time. Somewhere within the paragraphs you managed to make me a believer but just for a very short while. I still have got a problem with your leaps in logic and you might do nicely to help fill in all those gaps. When you actually can accomplish that, I would surely end up being impressed.
