About Abura-fu (Deep-fried wheat gluten)
Abura-fu, also called Sendai-fu, is wheat gluten that is shaped into a log and deep-fried in cooking oil. As it puffs up during frying, cuts are made along its length with a cutter or similar tool to control how it expands and give it a neat, elongated shape. It is commonly used in simmered dishes and miso soup. In Tome Town, Tome City, Miyagi Prefecture, it is also widely enjoyed as abura-fu donburi, a local specialty.
