[Kakeru]

Ah all such great suggestions. Thanks everyone. I'm going to try making the stew without the Konnyaku then the next time I go to Denver pick some up along with lot's of other things. The only great find I've made so far here is azuki beans.

Mirin is called for in like all these recipes! I have to order that soon, but I haven't tried yuzu yet. Ramune....we found that on a class trip and drank it like water. It's good I suppose.
