Yōkan is a traditional Japanese dessert made from sweetened red bean paste (anko), agar-agar (a gelatin-like substance derived from seaweed), and sugar, resulting in a firm, jelly-like texture. Typically served in block form, yōkan is sliced into thin, rectangular pieces before being enjoyed. It has a smooth, rich flavor and is often subtly sweet, making it a perfect accompaniment to green tea.

Yōkan comes in different varieties, with koshi-yōkan being the smooth, strained version and tō-yōkan having a chunkier texture due to the inclusion of whole or coarsely mashed beans. Other variations may incorporate flavors such as matcha or chestnut.

Yōkan is a popular snack during tea ceremonies and is often given as a gift during special occasions. Its dense, chewy texture and refined sweetness make it a beloved treat in Japanese confectionery.
