Japanese traditional new year meal
Ozoni (お雑煮: Traditional Japanese mochi rice cake soup for New Year)
Japanese traditional new year’s dish and it is known as an auspicious dish. Its cooking style varies depending on the region. West Japan usually uses a miso base while the East tends to use dashi. I am introducing what my grandmother used to cook, which is a simple and quick style, perfect for a lazy 1st day of the year. You may add more ingredients such as chicken, fish, meatballs, spinach, Chinese cabbage, daikon radish, carrot or shiitake mushrooms.
