Nabe - New Year's Day 2007

DateMonday, January 8, 2007 at 11:10PM

"Nah - bay"

New Year's Day, Cornwall, England

A Japanese feast

Chinese cabbage, carrots, oriental lettuce, daikon radish and  mooli from the garden

Extraordinary condiments sent by Mutsuko's mum with visiting freind Kanae 

Dried soy bean whey (yuba) from Cornish-Japanese Kim

Delicious, hyper-travelled dry mushrooms from  Winnie via Greenbean (hi winnie, arigato!)

Mutsuko's Mum's famous chewy rice balls

Some green stuff called komatsu

Dylan's whiting fished off the Lizard with skin-on

Cooked at the table in 

One giant bowl of fish stock..

like a big fondue.. all in

stick-chopped out with oohs and ahhs and giggles and mmms

into a bowl of sour miso stock

stick-chopped in expertly by 5 - 8 year olds 

and savoured
