πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Instructions

Press the tofu well so the finished chikuwa will hold its shape.

Blend tofu, surimi, egg white, starch, ginger, salt, and a little soy into a smooth paste.

Shape the paste around oiled rods or into short tubes with a hollow center.

Steam until firm and springy, then cool just long enough to slice neatly.

Serve the slices with scallion, grated daikon, and ponzu or soy sauce.
