i have limited access to japanese condiments and other food but oddly enough, I found a konjac at the store and decided to try your recipe! it's so simple yet so flavorful it's like eating pork steak sans the guilt and cholesterol lol
I used a package of konnyaku in a Kenchinjiru for some bulk, but these recipe looks more tasty. I will try it out. I am now comfortable with using butter with soy, sake and mirin and it really elevates sauces. I read that it is high in calcium and dietary fiber, which matches the diet I am trying to cook for.
Tried preparing konyakku with your video and I absolutely loved it! Nothing like this in Central America, where my parents are from, that I'm aware of. It's delicious. Nice texture. Especially useful as someone into bodybuilding and who wants to compete in powerlifting, a weight class sport.
I've eaten Konnyaku before 2 days the first time. First I thought it is a kind fungi. Then I looked on the Website, where I ordered and then Googled it. Gosh, Tofu and Konnyaku are two of the greatest asian things
すごいです！I bought yam cakes for the first time today and I’m gonna try this tonight. I really want to try oden one day too ^_^ I was always curious about the “little gray things” as I used to call them hehe
cool!! glad you like the recipe!! hope it turns out delicious!! Oden is on my list, but its an autumn/winter dish, so I am planning to make it this autumn!!
Hey Taiji, I have a question for you: What is your favourite japanese food and have you ever shared it on the channel? I‘d love to try it out! btw great video as always!
ummm, its hard to say what is my most favorite... Karaage, Tempura, Sushi, Sashimi (including filleting fish). Ive pretty much made all my favorite dishes, maybe except for Una-ju, for which I need Unagi, which is quite impossible to find outside of Japan.
@@taijiskitchen Have you looked for frozen unagi? I have lived in both the US and Europe and I find it most commonly sold frozen. I think though there's a lot of unagi shortages right now even in Japan.
@@Gewehr_3 that's an idea for a video! thanx! but no I haven't looked for it, will try to find it next time im at a large asian market! to actually prepare Unagi is only for pros, it requires great skill and better eaten in restaurant. therefore most restaurant, where they serve Unagi, they only serve Unagi!
its a special kind of potato, a plant also known as devil's tongue. here you can see the processing of how it is made: ua-cam.com/video/s4hLiM-xPic/v-deo.html
i have never tried myself, but I have heard, that cooking konnyku in microwave (if cooked too long), then it will be hard. so you could try, but only to warm it up.
@@salemthara7839 oh, you mean how to make Konnyaku from raw potato? thats a difficult, cuz you need the special Konnyku-potato, which is even in Japan barely sold as a raw potato. If you really want to know, you can check this out. ua-cam.com/video/s4hLiM-xPic/v-deo.html
I bought a Konnyaku first and then searched what to do with it 🤣, I'm glad I found your video. Thank you
Same lol
Big same

I honestly thought konnyaku was only used in oden! 😱 I will try this one for sure! 🙏
hahaha, no its used in many recipes!
how is this video still doesn't get alot of likes. This is so awesome tho. ❤️
Hahaha, thanx for such a nice comment!!

I add a bit of mushroom and it taste wonderful, thank you so much for the recipe ♥️
that's also a great idea!!
glad to hear you like the recipe!!
I love your video
Yummy!!!! ❤❤❤
Hello you said to boil for a few mins after putting the konjac in boil water. How long is a few mins? How can I tell it's "done"? Thanks!
Yum 😋
🙏 it's a fantastic recipe for the keto diet (I use erythritol instead of sugar). Thank you
glad you like the recipe!
what is keto diet?
@@taijiskitchen Low carb, high-fat diet. Famous in the US.
I thought it was an ornamental plant but I saw one in my grandmother's garden.
wow, really?! that's so cool! now you know what it was!!
where do you live?
Oh just wodnering! what type of rice do japanese people usally use in that bowl? or what did you use
And you just earned a subcribe and a like 😁
Good video!
Thanx!!
I had a block of konnyaku didn't know what to do with it. 😂
Same lol it's been in my fridge for a month
Is white konnyaku the same as regular konnyaku
👍🏻
thanx!!
How would this go for obento? Is it still allright to cool and eat later?
yes, of course! the flavor even gets soaked in the Konnyaku, when it cools off!!
@@taijiskitchen thank you. I will give this a shot
Hello,, I think you mean 5 grams of butter instead of 50 grams ?
oh, you are totally right!!
it is 5 g! I am very sorry for the mistake, and thank you for the correction!!
I'm so curious about it °_°.
What are you curious about? Konnyaku?
@@taijiskitchen Yes ! It's texture, it's taste, everything :D ! Also, the colour is special.
@@ParfaitChocolatBlanc hahaha, yes, the texture is very different from what you would find in the west!! so hope you get a chance to give it a try!!

@@taijiskitchen Thank you so much bro. I don't know what is the name of used powder. Is baking soda? Can you tell me please
@@salemthara7839 its Calcium hydroxide or slaked lime. don't know how it exactly works, but it solidifies the konnyaku potato paste.
I have eaten Konnyaku before, but never like this.
That's written in German...
Cool
thanx!!
