Tonight we had oden for dinner. We normally save this dish for the winter months when it’s cold outside and we want something warm and comforting, but Mariko had the craving, so she ordered an oden set from Weee! and added egg and tofu to round it out. It was delicious! 🍲😊
It’s not the prettiest photo of oden, but it tasted great.
The hot mustard we used was so hot. My sinuses hurt so much!
I returned from 80° F Southern California sun to a chilly 50° F Texas gloom, but tonight’s dinner was the perfect antidote. A pot of delicious Japanese oden. The traditional 辛子 karashi (hot mustard) was perfect with it, but I also kicked it up a notch by adding some fresh (homegrown by my mom) scotch bonnet to the broth in my bowl. 🌶 I was toasty warm after that meal for sure!
こんばんは。How’s it going?
So I mentioned the other day that we had a nice cold-weather meal in curry 🍛, and well, tonight we had another perfect cold-weather food: Oden! 🍢
Mariko use the Instant Pot to cook the oden, and it turned out great. She really loves her Instant Pot!
I hope you had a great Sunday.
またね～
