The "Golden Crescent Moon Curry," which will go on sale on Curry Day, January 22 (Wednesday), is a joint product developed by Mt. Fuji Products and the Nakamichi Agricultural Products Association. This golden-colored curry with a moon motif was created by making the most of the characteristics of the sweet corn "Kimihime," which is grown exclusively in the Nakamichi area of Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture and is certified as a "proof of Kofu."

■ The roux uses paste from "Kimihime," a sweet corn specialty of Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture.
It will be released on Wednesday, January 22nd, which is Curry Day.
"Golden Crescent Curry" uses "Kimihime" sweet corn paste in the curry roux, and is a balanced combination of Kimihime's distinctive sweetness and a unique blend of original spices.
You can enjoy the sweetness of the sweet corn combined with the strong spice of curry.
"Kimihime" is a specialty of Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, and has been produced only in the Nakamichi district of Kofu City since 2004 (Heisei 16).
This is a variety of sweet corn that is beautiful in appearance with its shiny yellow color.
When cooked, the color deepens and turns a glossy golden color.
It is characterized by its distinct graininess and shiny fruit packed all the way to the tip.
It has a very high sugar content, and when you put it in your mouth, the sweetness spreads throughout your mouth.
With an exquisite balance of strong sweetness and soft skin, it has gained many fans.
"Kimihime" has been certified as "Proof of Kofu" as the sixth specialty product under the Kofu Brand Certification System.
■ Aiming to develop products that do more than just use local products
"Golden Crescent Curry" is a product jointly developed with Nakamichi Agricultural Products Association.
The association came up with the idea of making a ready-made curry out of the sweet corn "Kimihime" in order to let more people know about its appeal, which led them to contact Fujisan Products, which is involved in the planning of many ready-made curry products such as "Blue Fujisan Curry."
When developing Fujisan Products, we felt that if the product simply used local ingredients, it would get lost in the crowd of other local curries.
Therefore, in order to make the most of the charm of "Kimihime," Kofu City's pride and joy, it was decided to use the distinctive golden-colored roux of Kimihime as the moon motif.
Taking into consideration the presentation of the rice, we decided to make it a crescent-shaped curry.
