Air date: Dec 19, 2022

Seasonal recipes from the nuns of Otowasan Kannonji Temple: Goma-dofu. This take on one of the most popular dishes in Japanese Buddhist cuisine is made with yoshino kudzu, a Nara Prefecture seasonal specialty. The preparation process is lengthy and requires you to grind roasted sesame seeds in a mortar for one hour. But it will reward your patience with rich and delicious flavor.
