Dried Wheat Gluten Okinawan Chanpuru
“Chanpuru” is an Okinawan stir fry dish, meaning “something mixed” in Okinawan.
Soak the Fu (dried wheat gluten) in water to soften it, then squeeze it tightly and let it absorb the beaten egg before frying.
Actually, it is cooked with Kuruma-fu, but of course, it is delicious even if you make it with ordinary baked fu.
If you eat it in a restaurant, Chinese shiitake are often used, but if you cook it at home, you can use plenty of delicious dried shiitake from Japan.
As the main ingredient, fu, is soft, you should definitely slice the shiitake thickly and enjoy their chewy texture!
Donko shiitake slices have an abalone-like texture, so the fu's squishy texture and the shiitake's crunchy texture create a delicious harmony.
Finish with plenty of dried bonito flakes, and the beer goes down a treat!
