-   * However, I've seen all sorts of variations: The 中あん being coloured red directly or the burdock stick being replaced with a compote (that's used as 中あん) (see [[http://www.dengonnet.net/japaneserestaurantguide/recipes/hanabira-mochi-from-kyoto/|here]]). +

-===Recipe=== +   * Traces its origins to the Imperial court (Heian period!), now traditioanlly served at 裏千家's 初釜. LK explained that for some time it was even 裏千家-exclusive, with 表千家 using the 織部饅頭. 
-Best to assemble them just before serving+   * It's {{ruby|求肥|ぎゅうひ}} wrapped around a candied burdock stick (裏千家 traditionally uses 2) and some 味噌餡. Traditionally, there's also a layer of diamond-shaped, red-coloured 求肥 that peeks through the white (which is where the name comes from). However, in my version below, I find it neater to just colour the あん.

-➡️ I heard some comments that in 裏千家 now the folded side is the front 🤯+🧂 Also, it probably won't do no harm at all to add a pinch of salt to the 求肥 and the candying syrup for the salsify.
  
-   * Add some red coloured 求肥 on what will be the top side, and some 味噌餡 on the bottom side.+   * Each 花弁餅 will use about 10 gr 求肥, 8 gr 中あん and a 15 gr piece of candied salsify. However, for the 求肥 you need about twice because I'm using a cookie cutter to make the shapes. You can also make little dumplings and roll out those, but it looks very tidy with the cookie cutter-method. 
 +   * Make [[gyuuhi|求肥]] in white and some small amount in red.  
 +   * Roll out 求肥 (it's quite elegant if you manage to make it very thin) and cut 8 cm circles. Brush the inside. 
 +   * Place candied salsify slightly below the middle, with the skin side facing north. It'll turn when folding, and like this, the skin side will face towards the open side.  
 +   * Place a dollop 味噌餡 (~ 8 gr) on the top side. 
 +   * Fold and miau miau!

-===味噌餡===+🍧 You can also roll them in sugar afterwards, which is not so bad and adds a nice texture in the finished 花弁餅. But it looses elegance like this, so it depends a bit on the audience. 
 + 
 +===My 味噌餡===
    * 150 gr 白あん    * 150 gr 白あん
-   * 30 gr white 味噌 +   * 15 gr white 味噌 (use a very high quality as the taste is very present) 
-   * 5 gr red 味噌 +   * 15 gr beurre noisette (= heat butter to 145° C, then filter) 
-   * 10 gr glucose syrup +   * 1 gr 醤油 
-   * 50 gr water+   * One recipe I've seen also uses a small proportion of red 味噌 here, which makes sense I think.
  
-➡️ Mix all and heat until dry-ish; but I found that a bit cumbersome and way to 味噌-y, so next time I'd probably use 10:1 ratio and just mix directly. No need for the water nor the glucose. Also use very high-quality 味噌!+➡️ Just mix and colour pink
  
-===Ideas=== +===Experiments=== 
-   * Pairings: Tonka, Pear, brown butter, coriander seed, white pepper. +   * Pear (or nashi) would make for a nice pairing. Also, can I work in some Champagne here? Maybe in the 求肥 (or at least some rice distillate)? 
-   * Turn the salsify into あん +   * I tried turning the salsify into あん. This works somewhat, but it's quite some work and you end up with very little あん for a lot of salsify with a very subtle taste.  
-   * Use a beure noisette-miso as the filling. +   * Also, to replace the burdock sticks, I made bâtons with white chocolate and 味噌 (60 gr white chocolate melted in bain marie, add 30 gr of white chocolate, add 15 gr 1:1 beurre noisette and 味噌-emulsion. Pipe, cool, cut and cover in couverture). They are absolutely fantastic, but they drag the sweet in a very French direction.
