I found a small restaurant in Ginza.
I found this dish.
But I can't explain this dish well.
Dengaku is an old Japanese cooking since nineth centuries.
Japanese bakes food on skewer with sauce like miso etc.
The foof is vegitables or cake of sereals. This simple cooking is called Dengaku.（田楽）
The explanation of NamaFu(生麩）is more difficult, alomst immpossible.
It is made of wheat. It consists of grutein(a sort of protein of wheat).
NamaFu is raw wheat grutein.
Can you imagine this cooking, a Dengaku of Namafu?
A baked wheat grutein on skewer.
Frankly saying, I couldn't imagine what it would be.
So I show you the picture of this one.
