== Overview == Suiton has a long history, and its root "mizu-dango" can be seen in the Muromachi period. It is also called "water dumpling". The cooking method of suiton on the material has changed drastically, and the form of hand-cooked flour like today appears in the late Edo period. From the Edo era to the prewar days, there were stalls and restaurants specializing in suiton, and it was popular food for ordinary people at that time. Although it had decreased considerably in the middle of the Taisho era, immediately after the Great Kanto Earthquake, stalls appeared everywhere in the burned fields as the food situation worsened.
