Strawberry white

Japanese: いちごくわい
Strawberry white

…The Shojin Kenritsū (1819-24) lists more than 10 types of dishes, many of which are still being made today. Many of them are made by grating the kuwai with a grater, adding a little salt, rolling them into small balls and frying them in oil (ichigo wai), grating the kuwai with Asakusa nori seaweed and frying it, then cutting and stewing it (minato kuwai), grating the kuwai with steam and grinding it, seasoning it with sugar and salt, frying it in an omelette pan, sprinkling poppy seeds and sesame seeds on it and cutting it (matsukaze guwai), grating the kuwai with a light salt seasoning, steaming it, wrapping it in nori seaweed and cutting it into small pieces (kuwai sushi), and grating the kuwai with wheat flour, grinding it together, adding ginkgo nuts and walnuts, frying it in oil and then stewing it (kuwai hiryouzu). Kuwai Senbei is supposed to be made by slicing it thinly and roasting it over a fire, but it seems that it would be better to fry it like potato chips and sprinkle salt on it.
