上品な甘さ。Refined sweetness

 

　日本茶を淹れていただきものの煎餅をかじり奥歯で噛みました。

焦げたしょうゆ味が口の中に広がりました。

お茶を一口すすってまた煎餅を食べました。

次回用に袋半分の煎餅を残しました。

　いただきものの干し柿を食べました。

普段食べている洋菓子の甘さと違った上品な甘さです。

種の周りの果肉がおいしいですね。

お茶を口に含んで甘さを楽しみました。

 I brewed some Japanese tea and took a bite of the rice cracker I had received as a gift, chewing it with my back teeth.
The taste of burnt soy sauce spread throughout my mouth.
I took a sip of tea and ate another rice cracker.
I saved half the bag for next time.

 I also ate the dried persimmon I had received as a gift.
It had a refined sweetness unlike the Western sweets I usually eat.
The flesh around the seed was good.
I took a sip of tea and enjoyed the sweetness.
