Background:
WHAT IS KONJAC?
Basically, the Konjac root (a tuber or “yam” unique to Asia) is the source of Glucomannan; a water-soluble dietary fiber that expands many times its size when consumed. This makes the “consumer” feel full with less food and provides a nice bit of fiber in the process.
In addition, some small studies have suggested that Glucomannan aids in lowing blood pressure and assists in regulating blood sugars. Interesting, eh? We’re talking about a plate of this stuff (in noodle form) having virtually no carbs because it is almost 100% fiber!
It’s so low in carbs, cals, AND fat (for those of you counting fat grams as well) that you can practically call it a “free” food.

Konjac or konnyaku is one of my favourite low calorie foods. Popular in many Asian dishes, it is produced from the dried ground root of taro plant (potato family) called konnyaku. It is made by combining the ground root with a water coagulating agent, usually calcium hydroxide or limestone water. It comes in block ‘yam cakes’ and as Shirataki noodles (i.e. konnyaku shaped in the form of noodles). If you have had Chinese, Japanese or Korean food, you probably have come across konjac at some point in your culinary journey.
