Yesterday, Satoshi had a dentist appointment, so afterwards as we were walking to the train station, I noticed this bagel shop, Kepo Bagels
Apparently this brand started back in 2008 in the Kamikitazawa area of Tokyo
The owner enjoys chewy foods so she makes NY style as well as Japanese style bagels
please label them...I couldn't tell them apart!
upon opening each package, I realized the "oily" one was the butter
We only ate the butter one and it could have been more chewy
I have the plain one in the freezer and look forward to trying this one
Not sure I'll be back, but am glad we got to try these

What is fermented butter?
ReplyDeleteJalna, it is also called cultured butter, it is a little different from butter because they add bacterial cultures to cream when making. Take care! Kat
Deletewhat is the difference between NY and Japanese bagels? I love chewy kind.
