Prepare a sweet pumpkin paste, enhancing the body with shiokoji salted rice malt and sesame oil. Marinate the carrot and jelly the native cucumber seeds for two fun mouthfeels. Add a crunchy accent with bitter melon, and mix the okra with the fibrous root of corn. Finally, break up the monotony of the veggie toppings with hijiki and bonito flakes. The dazzling ensemble of vegetables creates an even more sumptuous melody on the tongue at the hands of a master conductor.
