Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Water
- 1 4x4-inch piece Kombu (dried kelp)
- 1 cup Bonito flakes
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons Mirin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 pound Chicken thighs (boneless, skinless, cut into bite-size pieces)
- 0.5 pound Salmon fillets (skin-off, cut into 2-inch pieces)
- 0.5 pound Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 1 block Firm tofu (cut into 2-inch cubes)
- 1 head Napa cabbage (chopped into 2-inch pieces)
- 8 pieces Shiitake mushrooms (stems removed)
- 2 pieces Carrots (thinly sliced into rounds or decorative shapes)
- 2 stalks Leeks or green onions (cut into 2-inch pieces)
- 1 bunch Enoki mushrooms (trim off root base)
- 1 pack Udon noodles (fresh or frozen)
Instructions
In a large pot, prepare the dashi broth by adding the kombu and water. Let the kombu soak for 20 minutes.
Heat the pot over medium heat until just before it reaches a boil. Remove the kombu and discard.
Add the bonito flakes to the hot water and simmer for 2 minutes. Strain the broth into a new pot to remove the flakes.
Season the dashi broth with soy sauce, mirin, and salt. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Arrange the chicken, salmon, shrimp, tofu, napa cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, carrots, leeks, and enoki mushrooms in sections inside the hot pot.
Pour the seasoned broth over the ingredients and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Cook for 10–15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender.
In the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the udon noodles to the pot and allow them to heat through.
Serve the Yosenabe hot pot at the table, allowing diners to scoop out their portion into individual bowls. Enjoy with rice or additional dipping sauces if desired.
