Ingredients

  • 300 grams Beef tendons (or chicken wings)
  • 4 pieces each Daikon radish, taro root, eggs, konnyaku
  • 1 prep by rinsing in boiling water Atsuage, fish cakes (burdock root, gyoza)
  • 800 ml Dashi stock (kombu + bonito flakes)
  • 400 ml Cooking liquid from simmering the beef tendons (or chicken wings)
  • 50 ml each Sake, mirin, usukuchi soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon, 1/2 teaspoon Soy sauce, salt

Method

  • Re-hydrate the kombu in plenty of water.
  • If you're in a hurry, use hot water.
  • Round the edges of the daikon radish slices and make several crisscross incisions on the surfaces.
  • Add several grains of rice to the water and cook the sliced daikon until tender.
  • Peel the taro root and rub with salt to remove the sliminess.
  • Put in a saucepan with water and heat.
  • Bring to a boil, then simmer until tender.
  • Boil the eggs and peel the shells.
  • Rub the konnyaku with salt and make incisions on the surface.
  • Rinse the shirataki noodles in boiling water.
  • Put the beef tendons and 2 cups of water in a pressure cooker.
  • Cook for 10 minutes after the pressure is on and leave to cool.
  • Pour hot water over the atsuage.
  • Slice the burdock-filled fish cake diagonally.
  • Line the earthenware pot with kombu and combine the ingredients and beef tendons with cooking liquid.
  • Lay the kombu at the bottom of the pot.
  • Add the ingredients, 1/4 cup each of the ingredients, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  • After bringing to a boil, evaporate the alcohol content and skim off any scum.
  • Cover with a lid and simmer slowly over low heat (45 minutes to 1 hour).
  • Add the fish cakes and add more kombu based dashi.
  • Cook for another 15-20 minutes.
  • It might be better to add the atsuage a little earlier.
  • Check and adjust the seasoning if needed with light soy sauce or salt.
  • Turn off the heat and leave to cool to let the ingredients absorb the flavour.
  • I added squid to the hot pot I made in 2010.
  • It gave a great flavour to the soup with the beef tendons.
  • You'll be able to eat a lot of collagen if you add chicken wings.
  • Add mirin or soy sauce to adjust the seasoning of the soup.
