4) HAGI
Hagi (萩), mentioned numerous times in the Man'yōshū (万葉集), is one of the great symbols of Autumn.

As offerings, it is said that botamochi were made as a prayer for fertility (and a successful growing season) and ohagi in thanks for the harvest🌾
Long held to be an auspicious colour, the deep-red of the cakes was believed to console ancestral spirits and offer protection🙏

Ohagi (御萩), a simple rice cake covered in bean jam, goes by different names (& textures) depending on the season...
🌸spring = botamochi (牡丹餅 'peony')
⛱️summer = yofune (夜舟 'night boat')
🎑autumn = ohagi (御萩 'bush clover')
🌨️winter = kita-mado (北窓 'northern window').'Kita-mado' look like normal ohagi, but their texture and taste are different.
