車麩 Kuruma fu

These circles of wheat gluten are great. You can do all sorts with them and their chewy texture makes them a good substitute for meat. Here’s one recipe from the Japanese book ‘Happy Vegetarian’ which you can also buy through our online shop

材料(2 person)
Material(2 person)

Kuruma-fu
4 slices
A Dashi (konbu/shiitake)
200 cc
Sugar
2 tbsp
Shoyu
5 tbsp
Ginger (minced)
30g
B Dashi (konbu/shiitake)
400 cc
Katakuriko (potato starch) or equivalent
Oil
for frying

作り方

  1. 車麩を水に浸けてやらかくしておく。
    Aをボウルに入れ、お麩を入れたら、お麩がよく汁を吸うように押します。
    出汁からお麩を取り出し、4つのお麩をサンドします。

  2. お麩に片栗粉をつけ、中火でお麩が茶色になるまで揚げます。
    揚がったお麩を4分の1サイズにカットし、出来上がり!

Recipe

  1. Soak the kuruma-fu in water until soft, then drain well. Put A in a bowl then add the fu, pressing well to absorb flavours. Next remove the fu from the dashi (don’t drain off the liquid) and sandwich the 4 slices together.

  2. Coat the fu ‘sandwich’ with katakuriko and fry on a medium heat until well browned. Cut into quarters. Nb. our fu is quite thick so you might find sandwiching two slices to be thick enough.
