Once Christmas is over, the New Year is not far away! People often ask me how to celebrate the New Year in Japan? We live in the new calendar (times and customs are not the same), but we also eat New Year’s Eve dinner~
In Japan, it is not allowed to cook from the first to the third day of the first month of the first lunar month for fear that disturbing the gods will bring bad luck, so we will prepare the New Year dishes before the new year, that is, "Osaka cuisine."
Let the osechi dishes be placed in a kind of cascading triple boxes, which means happiness! And there are strict rules about what food should be placed on each floor:
The first floor will put auspicious side dishes;
On the second floor, there will be main dishes cooked by barbecue;
On the third layer, cooked dishes heated with water will be placed.
The fast hand dishes I make today are usually "Chikuzen Boiled" on the third floor. This practice originated in Fukuoka, Kyushu, and is called "がめ潤" (瓮擮) locally. It is now one of the most common home cooking in Japan.
Therefore, this Chikuzen cooking only uses the two seasonings of Yuyi Xianwei soy sauce and mirin, which is simple and delicious. In addition to using lotus root, shiitake mushrooms, radishes, konjac, etc. to make vegetarian dishes, you can also add some meat according to your preferences to enrich the diversity of Chikuzen cooking.
At the beginning of this month, I was doing "Chicken Chikuzen Cooking" as an instructor in the cooking classroom of a Shanghai City Supermarket. The ingredients are integrated but not conflicting. The entrance level is rich. Even the usual heavy-tasting students are amazed by Chikuzen Cooking.
I secretly tell everyone that "lotus root" has a very auspicious meaning, because there is a hole in the middle that can be seen through at a glance, so it also represents a good prospect for the coming year! "
