Stewed Konnyaku

I was inspired by the konnyaku in oden. When it sits in the refrigerator after cooking, the liquid soaks in and really makes it delicious, so I wanted to take advantage of that.

You can also simmer it in a pot. In that case, heat it over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes.
The umeboshi is salty, so adjust the amount of salt depending on the amount of umeboshi you use. Recipe by Raby

Ingredients

  1. 400 gramsKonnyaku
  2. 400 mlDashi stock
  3. 1 tbspSugar
  4. 3 tbspSoy sauce
  5. 1 tbspMirin
  6. 3Umeboshi
  7. 1 largepinch Bonito flakes

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the konnyaku into 6 mm strips, and make knots (make a vertical incision into the center of each strip while leaving both ends attached. Turn it inside out, through the hole). Bring some water to a boil in a pot, add the konnyaku, and return to a boil. Boil for one minute, then strain.

  2. 2

    Remove the seeds from the umeboshi, then mince.

  3. 3

    Put the dashi stock, sugar, soy sauce, mirin, and umeboshi from Step 2 into a heatproof bowl.

  4. 4

    Put the konnyaku from Step 1 into Step 3, mix it together, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave at 500 W for 10 minutes. Next, add the bonito flakes and lightly mix.

  5. 5

    Once it has cooled, cover with a lid or plastic wrap and let chill in the refrigerator for half a day to finish. Serve with the liquid.

  6. 6

    I garnished the konnyaku with snow peas simmered in salt water. If you make a lot, you can store in the refrigerator or pack in a bento.
