Konnyaku(Konjac)













I was just wondering if you eat konnyaku in your country?
Konnyaku is is a plant of the genus Amorphophallus.

In japan we eat a lot of konnyaku.
It's really healthy and only １０ calories per ８５ grams(3 oz)!

Today I made konnyaku sashimi.
This kind I bought looks like a squid sashimi, but it's NOT!

This dressing is really delicious!
You can use for many different kinds of vegetables too.

Directions
