Konjac, also known as glucomannan, is a water-soluble fibre extracted from the root of the konjac plant. At Shileo, our mission has always been to produce high-quality, low-calorie foods that are beneficial for your body, soul, and the environment. Our konjac is processed through a specialized drying method, ensuring the best culinary experience without the fishy smell often associated with wet konjac products.

To get started, prepare our konjac products by simply soaking them in hot water. Within minutes, they’re ready to be transformed into a variety of delicious recipes. Whether it’s traditional pasta dishes or exotic Asian cuisines, the sky’s the limit. Try using them as a base for a delicious konjac paella or a savory risotto. Thanks to our dried form, the konjac grains superbly absorb sauces and spices, offering a consistency and taste that's sure to impress - a feast for all the senses.
