Seven-Eleven Japan Unveils New Korean-Style Burrito

On November 19, Seven-Eleven Japan will start selling a new burrito titled 'Korean-Style Sausage & Mochi,' inspired by the popular street food 'Soddeok' found in vibrant Korean night markets. This culinary delight combines juicy sausages and chewy mochi wrapped in a savory sweet-and-spicy sauce, all encased in a soft tortilla perfect for one-handed enjoyment. With the winter chill upon us, this hearty fusion food is sure to warm your taste buds.

Celebrating Asian Flavors

Since its debut in 1983, the burrito has remained a beloved item at Seven-Eleven. To expand its offerings, the chain has introduced the 'Asian Flavor' series, which recently launched the 'Taiwanese Lu Rou Cheese Burrito' in September, receiving rave reviews. The new 'Korean-Style Sausage & Mochi' burrito, particularly well-received by women during its initial trials, will soon be available across Japan, with the exception of Gunma and Tochigi prefectures.

Experience the Unique Textures

The 'Soddeok' dish is well-loved in Korea, featuring skewered sausage and mochi that create a delightful contrast in textures. In this new burrito, thick slices of mochi and elongated sausages are tightly rolled together, delivering a satisfying experience with every bite. The combination of the slight crisp of the sausage and the soft, chewy mochi is genuinely captivating.

A Flavor to Crave

With its rich flavor profile, the burrito wraps around juicy sausage and highlights the depth of the sweet-and-spicy sauce. Each bite brings forth a complexity of flavors that will keep you reaching for more. The melting flavors uniquely blend together, enhancing the overall tasting experience and sure to satisfy any craving.

Crafted with Care

Seven-Eleven places great emphasis on the creation of its burritos, from the dough to the hand-rolled packaging. The meticulous process ensures that every burrito maintains the quality and flavor it has been known for since the early days. This attention to detail has birthed another enticing one-handed gourmet option.

A Well-Received Package

The burrito's packaging has also garnered positive feedback, and while some products may not currently be in stock, the enthusiasm from customers remains high.
