Oden party!!

Hello, I'm moco*:)

It's getting cold here these days.

We had "Oden" party at J-hoppers

Hida Takayama yesterday.












"Oden" is a typical Japanese hodgepodge

suitable for colder seasons.

Many different foods are boiled together

in a large pot with a soup seasoned

with soy sauce and dried bonito flakes.

The ingredients include hard-boiled eggs,

Konnyaku, Japanese radish, fishpaste cake,

deep-fried ball of fish paste and Hanpen

etc...

Hot mustard, Miso, and Yuzu pepper

goes really well with Oden:)











We enjoyed "Oden" and local sake!!
