I have never had this, but I have seen other recipes for this. You probably know about the baked manju sometimes with white bean, and in Okinawa it is with Purple Sweet Potatoes (yes, I capitalized it, because it is SPECIAL). This recipe of yours looks really good. Can't wait to try it. Keep eating!
