Did you know ?
The gomadofu was created by the monk Kūkai 1200 years ago. It was one of the dishes of Buddhist cuisine (almost exclusively vegetarian). Sesame, rich in nutrients, was used as a medicine in China. In Buddhist cuisine, there is not enough protein and sesame was a very good source of protein.
