Chewy and natural thickening. The charm of Kaga lotus root in powder ---------------------------- Ishikawa Prefecture's traditional vegetable "Kaga lotus root" is carefully dried and powdered. It has a stronger stickiness than regular lotus root, and is characterized by a chewy texture and a hint of sweetness. The aroma and flavor are not lost due to low-temperature drying, and sweeteners such as glucose are not added, making use of the taste as it is. If you use it as a binder, it will add fluffiness and elasticity. When mixed into dough such as hamburgers, okonomiyaki, and dumplings, the unique chewy texture of lotus root is brought out. Add it to soups or miso soup to easily add thickness and umami.
