Nanpudo Yukishio Chinsuko Okinawan Shortbread Cookies 48 Pieces

Chinsuko Cookies, or Okinawan Shortbread Cookies, have been made in Okinawa since the Ryukyu Kingdom. Besides having a long history, these shortbread-type cookies have a delightfully sweet flavor and crispy texture.

Chinsuko’s main ingredients are typically lard, flour, and sugar, giving the cookies a crumbly texture. But this variation of chinsuko includes Yukishio (snow salt) from Miyakojima island in Okinawa, so it has a slightly salty aftertaste.

Yukishio, or snow salt, is extracted by pumping underground water from the Okinawan island of Miyakojima and has high mineral contents and a powdery texture.

If you’re a lover of sweet and salty snacks or are looking for a new afternoon snack, then you’ve got to try these Yukishio Chinsuko cookies! They also pair perfectly with a cup of coffee. 

Nanpudo Yukishio Chinsuko is one of the most popular souvenirs to buy and take back home when visiting Okinawa.
