A wonderful dinner a few years ago: we stayed at the temple overnight. This was the shojin ryori dinner. Does anyone know what the thing wrapped in leaf in the back is? It was one of my favorite things.
Any searches I do only turn up with sweets or fish sushi, but I don't remember it being sweet. The dessert course came separately after this so I don't think it was a sweet. I thought it was kind of herby?

Do you have a picture of it unwrapped?
It looks like namafu (fresh gluten cake). Did it have sweet red bean paste inside?
