A traditional Japanese dish that is cooked fresh, self-serve at the table. Named for the sound of ingredients being swished in the well-seasoned, simmering stock. This dish is a classic recipe I enjoyed eating at my grandparent's house, and is one of the ways I enjoy keeping in touch with my cultural roots. Serve with whatever vegetables you'd like. But most traditional is chrysanthemum greens, nappa cabbage, carrots, broccoli, etc. My husband does not like mushrooms, but enokitake, shiitake, maitake, shimeji, and many other types of Japanese mushrooms are very popular. Alternatively to shirataki noodles, this can also be served with udon or other Japanese noodles. Currently I am eating low-carb due to having gestational diabetes, so we chose shirataki!

1 cupnappa cabbage

10.5 ozshirataki noodles

Instructions

Step 1

Prep your beef ahead of time. The sirloin needs to be slightly frozen but not rock hard and you need a very sharp knife. Slice it almost paper thin, similar to shredded beef for cheesesteaks or gyudon.

Step 2

Prep your other ingredients. Peel carrot and slice into coins. Cut head of broccoli into florets. Cube the tofu. Wash and cut your cabbage. Wash your green onion and remove any wilted or dried sections as well as the roots.

Step 3

Pre-cook your shirataki noodles and separate into two even servings. Place these into bowls.

Step 4

In your hotpot pot or in a pot on a tabletop burner, add water and 1 piece of kombu.

Step 5

Prepare small sauce dishes of ponzu or sesame dipping sauce.

Step 6

Serve with rice and japanese pickles.

Step 7

To enjoy, serve the ingredients family style with individual servings of noodles and dipping sauce. Swish your meat or vegetable in the bubbling hot pot, or drop in the ingredient and allow it to cook thoroughly before removing. Dip ingredients in sauce and have fun! *note: a soup skimmer is good to keep the broth from getting cloudy or foamy on top.
