`` Famitiki persimmon seed (Ume taste) '' tasting review that makes the crunchy texture and pale acidity addicted to persimmon seeds

From FamilyMart, a hot snack “ Famitiki Persimmon Seed (Ume taste) ” using persimmon seeds in their clothes has appeared on March 3, 2020 (Tuesday). It was the first attempt to use persimmon seeds for clothing, and it was said that it had a crunchy texture that was not available in conventional Famichiki.

That's why I get Famiticki persimmon seeds (Ume taste) at FamilyMart. Packaging is the same as normal Famiticki (left).

Opening the bag of Famichiki persimmon seeds (Ume taste) is like this. Something like a coarse grain hail is mixed in the brown garment, and you can see the crushed persimmon seeds being dusted.

The difference is clear at a glance, even if you take the Famiticki persimmon seeds (Ume taste) out of the bag and compare them to regular Famiticki (left).

When you insert the kitchen knife to look at the cross section, you will hear a crackling sound.

Looking at the cross section, you can see a slightly pinkish part between the clothes and the meat. When I thought, 'Is it spicy to use persimmon seeds?', I tried to eat it, and the crispy texture of the fried persimmon seeds is a good accent, but it is unique to persimmon seeds I can't feel the spicy spiciness. Also, thanks to the scent of plums and subtle sourness, the impression is that the finish is simple. A comment from the editorial staff who tasted it said, 'The refreshing part may be easier to eat than regular Famiticki.' However, once cooled and then re-warmed, the crunchy feeling of the clothes is lost and the flavor of the plums is reduced, so it is recommended to eat as soon as you buy.

Famichiki persimmon seeds (Umemi) are available at FamilyMart stores nationwide and are available in limited quantities from March 3, 2020 (Tuesday). The price is 198 yen including tax, but from March 3 to March 23 (Monday), it can be purchased for 20 yen off 178 yen including tax.
