Popular Japanese Street Foods


More popular Japanese street foods. There is some weird food that comes from Japan, which felt ... acquired with time. This usually does not end up on your plate at a local Japanese restaurant. Japanese cuisine has been widely exported around the world, with Japanese restaurants popping up every day in the Western world.

Sushi is arguably Japan's most famous dishes, and most restaurants are ultimately based in the vicinity. Throughout my blog is to introduce you to dish a lot of alternatives and praised Japan for a variety of cuisine and taste comparable to none. However, Japanese cuisine is not always user-friendly.

This dish is made from Konnyaku potato wild. If you're a dieter, this dish is for you, as it has practically zero calories and no sugar, fat, protein, and also almost any taste.

This is a magic fill, however. Eat this piece of slippery and bouncy gelatin is bound to make you feel weird. Konnyaku is usually a part of Japanese stew and soup, including Oden (remember?). By the way, another dish is almost impossible to pick up with chopsticks.

2. Natto

Are you brave enough to swallow the food that gives out aroma of old gym socks that have not been washed for over a decade?

Natto is a food item made from fermented soy beans. Think of a slimy, sticky beans in a small Styrofoam container, looking like they had been stored there for generations. This is actually one of the healthy dishes Japanese cuisine can offer.

Usually, Natto is served for breakfast on top of hot white rice, along with special sauce and a little mustard. Japanese people sometimes mix in raw eggs for the dish just to add to his bizarreness. Find it all delicious.

3. Umeboshi Plum
