A mellow and healthy parfait.
Nikirizake (sake with its alcohol evaporated) is also used in desserts and in this recipe, it adds umami and a smooth flavor to the marshmallow yogurt. Also, soaking the castella in syrup made with nikirizake and sugar makes a parfait particularly enjoyable for adults. The alcohol from the sake is burned off when heated, so children and light drinkers can also enjoy this dessert.
