is a Japanese traditional confectionery that is made of azuki or other beans, covered with refined sugar after simmering with sugar syrup and drying. It was developed by Hosoda Yasubei during the ''Bunkyū'' years (1861–1863) in the Edo period. He opened a ''wagashi'' store in Tokyo, which he named for his childhood name: Eitaro. This store continues to operate. Amanattō was originally called ; the name was abbreviated to ''amanattō'' after World War II. The resemblance of the name to the fermented bean dish nattō is coincidental. In Hokkaidō, amanattō is used in cooking ''sekihan''. For this reason, unlike other areas, the ''sekihan'' of Hokkaidō is a little sweet. ==See also== * List of legume dishes * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amanattō」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
