Many people here
have no idea
how they can eat Konnyuaku,
although it has tons of health benefits
and effective to lose weight.
So I wanna introduce
how you can cook it here(o^―^o)
How to remove the smell of Konnyaku.
(without using salt!)
1 Cut Konnyaku into small pieces.
2 Put them into small plastic bag
with three table of sugar and
rub well for 2-3 minutes.
(at least 5g sugar per 100g Konnyaku)
Throw away the water inside of bag,
then rinse Konnyaku well.
※Sugar absorb the water
inside of Konnyaku
and remove the special smell of them.
You don’t need to worry
about how much amount
of sugar you use because
you dump the water eventually.
This way is secret tip of cooking.
3 If you still wanna remove
the special aroma of
Konnyaku completely
before you cook them,
you can still boil
Konnyaku in hot water.
I boiled Konnyaku
with sake or white wine.
Please don't boil
Konnyaku too long,
because it make them
more firm and decrease
the inside minerals of Konnyaku.
(Konnyaku includes
calcium and ceramides.
Ceramides keep your skin
moisture and supple.)
Rinse well with water after boiling.
After pre-cooking
1 You can cook Konnyaku
with many vegetable
and Japanese Dashi soup
and small amount of soy source.
2 Chop Konnyaku into
very small pieces and
then fried with rice
to reduce the intake of carbs.
3 Use Itokonnyaku
(noodle-style Konnyaku)
instead of pasta or rice noodles.
Konnyaku is almost 0 calories
and no sodium itself.
4 Soak Konnyaku
into black coffee or
sweetened coffee
over night and make
Konnyaku coffee jelly
by yourself.
Your favorite juice or sweet syrups are
also useful to make Konnyaku jelly.
Or you can make warabimochi by
using Konnyaku instead of mochi.
※ You can buy Konnyaku jelly from Amazon
if you are too lazy to cook Konnyaku.
It might be pricey but I think
it is delicious and healthy.

My favorite way of cooking. I stew Konnyaku with Dashi and
use minimum amount of soy source.
Secret Golden rule of diet.
If you really really wanna
lose weight,
you should care about
how much sodium
you intake
than how much calories
you intake everyday.
Calories burn out easily
in your body
no matter what
activity you do daily,
but sodium accumulate
water and fat
in your body.
Please remember this
and don't waste
your money for stupid diet products
which has no effect but expensive.
It's good to eat some Konnyaku
before your meals to fill your stamach
with Konnyaku's fiver.
Konnyaku is also delicious and
fun texture(⌒∇⌒)

I remember
my older sister and I
fought over spicy Konnyaku

because both of us love it!
My mom cooked
Konnyaku often
for our health and
she also put Konnyaku
