Eating Nabe with our Homestay family in Japan

Hello friends. Let me introduce an interesting video of how to eat nabe. Nabe or as people call it as nabemono is a stew and soup dish being served in cold winter months. There is no limit as to what ingredients you want to include. That means diners can just pick the cooked ingredients from the pot. Technically, it is eaten with a some soy sauce, salt and pepper, some sweet vinegar. It all depends on your taste and preference.

I'll list here some of the ingredients for your reference.

  • pork cultets like bacon slices
  • dried seaweed for the soup stock flavor
  • cabbage
  • mushroom 
  • some spices 

*I now present a short clip from our nabe experience. Enjoy watching.

That's it for now. Hope you have a good day. Take care.
