From the very first bite, he could feel the soft yet firm texture of the green ball's skin, which was infused with mugwort juice. It wasn't like ordinary dough that fell apart easily; this was springy and resilient. The fragrant mugwort wasn't bitter at all, but instead carried a hint of sweetness.
When he bit into the salted egg yolk nestled within the red bean paste filling, the distinct, savory, and slightly grainy texture of the yolk immediately and powerfully took over his palate.
The savory saltiness of the yolk and the sweet fragrance of the red bean paste blended together, creating a unique and novel flavor. It was absolutely delicious.
