Food Trip Friday---Oden



During my first year of marriage, I cook my oden hotpot using oden seasoning sold at supermarkets but thanks to my Mother-In-Law who taught me her homestyle way of making oden and now I'm cooking them with my own family. Here's the recipe of my homemade oden hotpot. You may add anything you want for your oden like hanpen ( fish cakes ) and or ganmodoki or atsuage ( fried tofu ). You may use oden seasoning sold at your favorite Asian stores instead of using A.

Ingredients: ( good for 4 persons )

daikon radish - 300g
potatoes - 4 pcs
boiled eggs - 4 pcs
konnyaku ( yam cake) - 1 block
chikuwa - 1 pack
dried kombu knots ( kelp ) - 4pcs soaked in water, discard the water afterwards
chicken legs - 8 pcs

A:

dashi - 900 ml water + 2 teaspoon instant dashi powder
soy sauce - 4 1/2 tablespoon
sugar - 2/3 tablespoon
mirin - ( japanese sweet cooking wine ) 2 1/3 tablespoon
salt - 2/3 teaspoon


1: Cut daikon into thick rounds. Leave potatoes in whole. Peel boiled eggs.

2: Cut other ingredients into large pieces.

3: Boil A in a large pot or hotpot.

4: Add ingredients into the pot starting with the chicken except for the chikuwa.

5: Turn down the heat to low and simmer for 40-60 minutes.

6: Please remember that the longer you cook oden, the better the taste.

7: Add chikuwa and or hanpen ( if you have them ) just before you eat them.


Serve with hot rice and salad. See, it's a quick, easy and warming dish best for cold months! Enjoy with beer!! ^_^

What are those round stuff there that's looks close to a cylinder? Sorry for the description, couldn't think of more appropriate words.Ü

I would eat that. It looks really healthy and good for someone who's on a diet.Ü

@Mommy Shy and Mommy Willa:It's really easy to cook oden,all you have to do is cut the ingredients and prepare the hotpot and wait till it's done!
@Mommy Liza:Mas tasty ang sabaw ng oden the second day kaya pag nagluto ako ng oden,pang maramihan at matipid pa lol!!
@Ate Rose:Thanks po,tsambahan lang yan lol!^_^
@Jane:Thanks for the compliment!
@Dee:Yap,one of Japan's comfort foods on cold days.
@Russ:It is called chikuwa( fish cake),it is made of fish paste with seasonings and wrapped around a bamboo stick and steamed which makes it a tube like as finished product.
