Oden is a traditional Japanese hot pot dish for the colder months. It consists of various ingredients such as daikon radish, boiled eggs, konnyaku (yam cake), fish cakes, and tofu products, all simmered in a light, soy-flavored dashi broth. Each ingredient absorbs the savory flavors of the broth, making oden a comforting and hearty meal. It's enjoyed at home, in specialty restaurants, and even at convenience stores throughout Japan.
At this oden restaurant, even if you don't order, a dish called "otōshi" comes out first. "Otōshi" is a kind of table charge.
Here are my favorite ingredients:
