About Okyuto (Seaweed gel served with ginger and soy sauce)
Okyuto originated in Fukuoka, where it has long been a local staple and an essential part of breakfast. It looks somewhat like tokoroten or konjac. It is made by combining egonori seaweed and okiten in a 7:3 ratio, then shaping the mixture. It is typically served simply with grated ginger and soy sauce, and has a distinctive springy, chewy texture. It contains very few calories, making it seem like a good choice for those watching their weight.
