Product Type: Dried ingredient for Japanese cuisine
Product Description
Our Dried Kanpyo is a traditional Japanese ingredient made from dried strips of calabash gourd. It is a staple in many Japanese dishes, especially maki sushi, omakase menus, and shojin ryori (vegetarian cuisine). When rehydrated, the strips become tender and soft. You can season them with soy sauce, sugar, and mirin to create a sweet and savory flavor that's perfect for wrapping sushi and other delicate dishes.
Usage
Soak the kanpyo in clean water for 15-30 minutes until soft.
Rinse thoroughly and squeeze out the excess water.
It can then be simmered with soy sauce, sugar, and mirin before being used to wrap sushi, fried foods, or other dishes.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Once opened, reseal the bag tightly or store it in an airtight container.
It does not need to be refrigerated before being rehydrated.
