Tama Konnyaku
Round pieces of konnyaku skewered one after another. Once the soy sauce color has deeply soaked in, a single firm bite releases a burst of savory broth. Add a dab of spicy mustard, and you won't be able to stop—this is Yamagata's soul food, Tama Konnyaku. This dish features round konnyaku pieces about 3 centimeters in diameter, slowly simmered in soy sauce along with ingredients like dried squid. Yamagata has long been a region where konnyaku potatoes and konnyaku consumption are cherished, and the style of shaping them into rounds to be eaten on skewers is said to have spread primarily around tourist areas. A familiar taste found at temple gates and festival stalls, it is an essential part of exploring Yamagata. There is nothing quite like devouring a skewer while walking through the streets.
