【Features】
Konjac (also known as konnyaku) has a uniquely soft and springy texture. Once solidified, it becomes insoluble in water and exhibits strong elasticity. The basic process involves boiling konjac yam, mashing it, mixing it with a solidifying agent (an alkaline substance like baking soda), shaping it, and then boiling it again. In Western countries, it is primarily known as a diet food due to its extremely low calorie content (5-7 kilocalories per 100g) and rich content of glucomannan, a type of dietary fiber.
