The Tsunokawa district in a mountainous region of Tozawa Village, Yamagata Prefecture has five farmers’ guesthouses. One of them is Abe run by Mrs. Abe. The Abe house has pestles and a mortar for pounding mochi. Whenever the Abe family, a local farming household, has homemade glutinous rice cultivated in its fields, you can experience mochi pounding.
