Winter is near\/here and you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re already running behind if you haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t pulled out your nabe pot.<\/p>\n

A favorite winter food to cook up at the kotatsu and keep you warm, nabe is both simple and versatile. Simply stock up on your favorite meat and vegetables, stir together some yummy stock, and you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re all set to dive under the kotatsu and stay there til winter’s end.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Good for sharing with friends and family, nabe (Japanese hot pot) also makes for fun and interactive eating as you throw things into a pot, watch it cook, and eat as you go. Once you have a few stock options in your cooking arsenal, the variations and flavor possibilities are endless.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Prepare all your ingredients beforehand by cutting vegetables and meat and arranging them nicely on a plate. Also, be sure to defrost and precook your udon by bringing the noodles to a boil and soaking them in an icewater bath to stop the cooking. Once this is set, all you need is your stock, and you can sit back, relax, and eat!<\/p>\n

                #3 Sukiyaki Sauce\/Stock<\/strong><\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                1 cup Sake<\/p>\n

                1 cup Mirin<\/p>\n

                1 cup Soy Sauce<\/p>\n

                \u00c2\u00bc cup Sugar<\/p>\n

                Dashi or Water<\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                If you want to precook your meat (optional):<\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                1 Tbsp your favorite Cooking oil (vegetable, sesame, olive)<\/p>\n

                1 Tbsp Brown Sugar<\/p>\n

                1 lb (450 g) Sukiyaki Beef<\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                Instructions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                  \n
                1. Bring the sake<\/strong>, mirin<\/strong>, soy sauce<\/strong>, and sugar<\/strong> to a boil in a small pan. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                   <\/p>\n

                    \n
                  1. Heat up your nabe pot and drizzle in the cooking oil. Mix the sukiyaki beef<\/strong>, brown sugar<\/strong>, and a bit of the sukiyaki sauce<\/strong> and sear it in the pot until caramelized. *At this point, if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re going Osaka style, you can eat some of the beef before beginning the nabe fun.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                     <\/p>\n

                      \n
                    1. Pour \u00e2\u2026\u201c cup dashi <\/strong>or water<\/strong> and 1 cup of the sukiyaki sauce<\/strong> into your nabe pot along with the meat and add in your favorite nabe ingredients. Cook and eat, refilling your nabe pot with dashi<\/strong> or water<\/strong> and sukiyaki sauce<\/strong> as needed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                       <\/p>\n

                      In Japan, since eggs are safe to consume raw, sukiyaki is traditionally dipped in raw egg<\/strong> before consuming. If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re feeling adventurous, give it a try! ;)<\/p>\n

                       <\/p>\n

                       <\/p>\n

                      On a final note, once you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve finished eating your nabe, you can save the leftover stock infused with all that nabe goodness and use it to make Z\u00c5\u008dsui \u00e9\u203a\u2018\u00e7\u201a\u0160 by adding pre-cooked rice and boiling it to a porridge-like consistency. This is especially good to eat when you have a cold.<\/p>\n

                       <\/p>\n

                      Stay Warm & Be Well,<\/p>\n
