Ingredients:
1 lb chicken drumsticks chopped into 1-inch pieces (Use cleaver or
heavy knife)
1 lb tofu pressed and drained - cut into 1-inch pieces
1 bundle watercress
1 Chinese cabbage - cut into 2-inch pieces
2 cups shirataki
2 cups spring onions - cut into 2-inch pieces
1 cup carrots - thinly sliced diagonally
8 dried shiitake mushrooms - soaked in water (Keep this water.),
1 2 inch x 6 inch kombu seaweed
2 tsp. dashi powder (not for purists)
Dipping sauce
1 cup Kikkoman soy sauce
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1 lemon
Direction:
Add 1 inch of water to a 12-inch table-top skillet (electric or
gas, whatever is available). Add the kombu and boil. Just before it starts
to actually boil, remove the kombu. If you are using dashi powder, add it
now (drop by drop). If you soaked the shiitake mushrooms, dump that water
in here, too. Anyway, just put whatever you want to eat in the water to
cook it until ready. Serve with dipping sauce (just mix what's shown
above) and lots of steamed rice. It will make you very warm. If you have
the luxury of obtaining shichimi togarashi, sprinkle in a bit for added
flavour. When you are finished, dump some rice into the remaining water
and cook gently to make congee.
