Befco Hokkaido Rich Grilled Corn Senbei Rice Crackers

The Hokkaido Rich Cheese Senbei made its case for the triple-coating sandozuke process through dairy richness.

The Grilled Corn makes it through something entirely different: the particular sweetness and smoky fragrance of corn grilled over direct heat, concentrated to the point where a single cracker fills the room with it.

Yakimorokoshi — grilled corn — is one of Hokkaido’s most iconic summer foods, sold from street stalls brushed with soy-butter glaze and eaten hot off the cob.

It is a flavor that belongs to a specific sensory memory: the caramelized sweetness of corn heated until its sugars begin to brown, the faint smokiness that develops at the edges, and the depth that makes it taste like more than simply sweet.

Befco’s sandozuke process — applying the seasoning three times rather than once — is what allows that full character to arrive on a cracker in a way that holds together from the first bite to the last.

The corn used is Hokkaido Super Sweet variety — the premium cultivar grown in Hokkaido’s cool northern climate, where the long summer days and temperature variation between day and night concentrate the sugar content to a level that makes the prefecture’s corn a sought-after ingredient in its own right.

Corn powder carries the sweet, grassy character of the fresh cob; soy sauce and fermented seasoning provide the savory depth that gives the sweetness something to push against; garlic extract adds a background warmth that rounds the finish; caramel color deepens the toasty grilled quality that the name promises.

The cracker is shaped like a leaf — designed to evoke the shape of a corn husk, which is a small and entirely characteristic Befco detail that earns a moment of appreciation before disappearing into the bag.
