HOW TO MAKE ANMITSU
Gel:
Boil 500 ml of water in a saucepan and add the agar-agar powder.
Make sure the agar-agar dissolves completely by stirring constantly.
Add the sugar and boil, stirring, until dissolved.
Pour this mixture into a bowl and let it cool to room temperature. Then leave it in the refrigerator until it gels (about 1-2 hours).
Anko:
If you are using ready-made anko, just place it in a bowl and it is ready to use.
Kuromitsu:
Kuromitsu can be purchased ready-made or prepared using dark colored sugar and water. Boil the mixture until it becomes a thick syrup.
Fruit and Other Ingredients:
Wash the fruits and slice them.
If you are preparing mochi or shiratama dango, prepare them at this stage as well.
Service:
Cut the gelatinized agar-agar into cubes and divide equally among four bowls.
Add anko, fruit slices, and mochi or dango to each bowl.
Add a scoop of green tea ice cream on top of each bowl.
Just before serving, pour kuromitsu syrup over each bowl.
