History and Origins

The green potatoes and the green-headed stems were called "sniff," and the potatoes that dried them were once eaten extensively as food to preserve. Especially when there wasn't enough food, it was said that there were many occasions when people would cook, mix with rice, cook and eat. Also, it was considered good for the body of a woman, and it was called the medicine of the blood-blooded road. The eight-headed stem is harvested in autumn, and is peeled well and dried for preservation. When the weather is good and wind is hot, dry and dry, the stem will last for a year if it is cut into four-inch [3 cm] strips. We use it with water as much as we eat. Now, though the eight-headed stem is far out of reach, Saitama Prefecture is one of the largest eight-headed fields in the country, and it grows the original "eight-head" in all parts of the province, centered around Deeptown and Sudoku. "Source of the Albrey" has been known as a strong taste for anything, such as rice, rice, booze and so forth.

When It Is Eaten

When we ran out of food, we were eaten as a bowl of wine. In recent years, the stem itself and the dried-up stem have been difficult to obtain and less opportunities to eat at home.

How It Is Eaten

I'll put the dried potatoes back in the water overnight. We can cut it into size, which is easily eaten with any dish we eat, and roast it with oil that is heated in a pot. Add some flavors, such as wine, sauce, sugar, and sesame oil, and cook until you're no longer hungry. Sometimes they only use potatoes.

Recipe — Serves 4
