here. I ordered the traditional vegetable appetizer, which consisted of three small dishes of okara and veggies, burdock and carrot salad, and seaweed (hijiki) salad. The okara was good because there was some konyakku mixed in...

made himself when I was manager of the Good Food Co-op in Manhattan. He used to deliver his stuff weekly: fresh tofu, soymilk, and a specialty he said he had “innovated” called the "Okara Burger", which, as the label...

Great report MV! I rounded up my pics of Haji’s work, see link below. Had some wonderful Miyagi Oysters on Friday night. Also some other interesting things like homemade Okara (soy pulp dish), very good, unfortunately not...

homemade soy milk. Soak overnight, rub off skins, puree beans in blender, strain/press out the soy milk, simmer for a few minutes. Add sugar and vanilla if desired. Keep one week in fridge. The leftover bean pulp is okara; you...

is quite a courageous move, so I applaud EN for this. However, I’m just curious what they do with an astronomical amount of ‘okara’ afterwards b/c I didn’t notice any dish making good use of okara. Do they...

I’ve been by Han Au Reum several times since this post and have never seen soft tofu there. Today I went by when the guy was making tofu, and noticed that they have put out the hot tofu in the rectangular containers, and...

" plate had 3 salads – an okara / konnyaku salad, a hijiki / carrot salad, and a gobo (burdock) / carrot salad. These (especially the last two) are fairly common salads that you frequently see at Japanese and / or...
