A young girl learns that good things can take time as her father teaches her about an important Japanese cultural tradition.
When the first snowfall of the year reaches the foot of the nearby mountain, Chiyoko wants nothing more than to go there with Papa and build a snowman. But Papa has other plans—there’s miso to be made. Papa, Papa’s papa, and Papa’s papa’s papa were all miso makers, and Chiyoko is proud to learn about her family’s tradition. But miso making is a long process, and the snow isn’t going to last forever. To make something truly special with her Papa, Chiyoko will need the most important ingredient: patience.
