What’s is this?

Miso konnyaku skewers are a simple local snack found at food stalls and small shops in local in Japan. They are made by putting pieces of konnyaku (a firm, jelly-like food made from konjac root) on a skewer and covering them with a warm, savory miso sauce. The flavor is rich but not too heavy, and the texture is chewy in a pleasant way. People usually enjoy them as a quick snack, especially at festivals or in rural areas where this dish is a regional specialty.

I don’t particularly like the normal version, but this one is an exception. Because this version of miso konnyaku skewers is a little different from the regular kind.

The konnyaku is lightly grilled over an open flame, which gives it a toasty, smoky aroma and a deeper flavor. The outside becomes slightly browned and fragrant, making the chewy konnyaku and sweet-savory miso sauce even more delicious.
