Oden Chibana Again!



Chibana-san's wife again had prepared oden and had him bring me a bowl which I enjoyed yesterday for lunch. Nothing could have been finer for lunch when it was pouring rain and windy outside from the fringes of Tropical Storm Halong!

From bottom left, there was daikon, konnyaku, chikuwa, konbu knot, pork shank, tofu, egg, shirataki bundles, and potato (hidden under). As usual it was oishii!

they're treating you like royalty over there. Perhaps, just the old style.

Looks oishii!

I learned how to make Oden from a late aunt of mine. It's really easy if you use the Oden-nomoto broth base, which is similar to regular Dashi, but a little sweeter.

Here's my take on the dish...

Oden can add up at the cash register if you really want a variety of different Kamaboko to go in it. Marukai also sells an Oden "kit" though, which is more economical.. about $7, which includes a good variety of items like yours and mine has. I especially like the Kombo Maki with pork stuffed in it. Good stuff!
