Narutomaki(Kamaboko)

Some time back I posted a message on my other blog about wanting to find a recipe for naruto. In case you don't know, Naruto is a Japanese fish cake with a pink spiral commonly used to decorate ramen.

Not long ago, someone commented on that post stating that I might have better luck searching under the name kamaboko. I did have better luck, but I still haven't found anything I could consider a recipe. There are many sites that say cooking naruto at home just isn't done because the process is too difficult. I did find one person at Recipe Link that listed some of the thickeners used in making kamaboko, but that is hardly a recipe.

My other blog gets a decent number of hits and nobody has been able to find a recipe. I've scoured the internets trying to find one. Can any of you good blog readers find anything? I promise to do a follow-up on this with pictures of me making it and the recipe/process if someone is able to find me a recipe.
