From Konjac Root to Handmade Konjac! 🌱 Dig, Process, and Create – A True Farm-to-Table Konjac Experience! 🌱 Did you know that konjac has a season? Yes, it’s a winter food! In traditional Japanese culture, konjac is known for warming the body during the colder months. Supermarkets sell konjac all year round, but fresh, handmade konjac is entirely different from the factory-made version! Even local konjac sellers rarely make it from scratch using real konjac root—and this is your chance to experience it! 🥢 What Makes Handmade Konjac Special? No preservatives or artificial additives – Unlike store-bought konjac, which contains preservatives that make it smell strong and last for months. Unmatched texture and taste – Soft, smooth, and naturally delicious. Highly nutritious – Supports digestion and is great for gut health! Konjac-making is hard work, but the reward is top-quality, handmade konjac that you can’t find in stores. From just 1kg of konjac root, you can make 30-40 sheets of konjac! Handmade konjac is a premium gift that anyone would appreciate. 🥄 Experience Details 📅 Season: Winter only (until the first frost) 📍 Location: Near Joso City, Ibaraki Prefecture (Shuttle available from Mitsuma Station) 👥 Capacity: Limited slots per session (held once a month) 💰 Participation Fee: ¥11,000 (📦 Includes materials + about 10 sheets of handmade konjac to take home!) ⏳ Duration: About 2.5 hours 🍽 What You’ll Experience ✔️ Digging up fresh konjac roots (seasonal activity) ✔️ Learning the traditional method of processing konjac from scratch ✔️ Making your own konjac—soft, smooth, and full of flavor ✔️ Enjoying premium konjac as sashimi-style with soy sauce & wasabi Konjac made from powder is common, but real konjac made from fresh root is a rare delicacy.
