Hina-maturi is the Doll’s festival or Girl’s festival observed on March 3.

Graceful dolls of the Emperor and Empress, and noble court people in Heian era costumes are displayed to celebrate the girl’s healthy growth and wish them to be as graceful as Heian nobles.

We eat Hina-arare on this day.

Hina-arare-rice cake cut into roughly cubic chunks, then dried, roasted, and flavored with sugar.

*Heian era is from the 8th century to the 12th century.
