Osechi-Ryori (おせち料理) 30 Dec 2012 3:41 AM (12 years ago)


Osechi-Ryori (お節料理) is the traditional Japanese New Year’s foods. First introduced during the Heian Period, osechi-ryori is basically a bento (boxed lunch box) eaten during the first 3days of the New Year. Each dish and ingredient in osechi has meanings, such as good health, fertility, good harvest, happiness, and long life.


Traditional Osechi-Ryori is very sweet. Because Osechi-Ryori for 3days, add sugar can be keep longer.

This is the Macrobiotic style Osechi-Ryori. So I didn’t add much Sweetener like a traditional style.


 
 
*Ozoni (お雑煮)is Mochi (pounded sweet rice cake) in clear soup,
Symbolizes vitality and stamina
 
 
*Adzuki Brown rice ball, braised maitake mushroom and dried daikon filling
Symbolizes strength and health
 
*Braised Hokkaido Black bean(黒豆)
Symbolizes longevity, health
I use Rice syrup for this dish. Cook until black bean are very soft. Customer’s daughter loved this!
 
*Datemaki (伊達巻き)Tofu and pumpkin rolls
Symbolizes personal development, joy, success in study, auspicious
Datemaki (伊達巻き) is the popular dish of “Osechi-Ryori”.
Original Datemaki is made of Egg and white fish paste. I arranged Macrobiotic style! This Datemaki is made of tofu and pumpkin.
*Shofuyaki(松風焼き)
Symbolizes strength
Seitan patty, walnut and pumpkin seed topping
Original is made of Chicken mince.
 
*Carrot and daikon pickles(紅白なます)
Symbolizes peace, celebration
Red and white color is celebration color in Japan
 
*Braied Konnyaku tazuna and vegetables (蒟蒻と野菜の煮物)
Symbolizes harmonious family relationship
Konnyaku is miso taste, Lotus root cooked with Umeboshi.

*Agedashi Dofu(揚げ出しごま豆腐)
Sesame tofu tempura with sauce.
Sesame tofu is very soft, malt in mouth! It’s very creamy and rich taste.

Datemaki (伊達巻き) 30 Dec 2012 3:22 AM (12 years ago)


I made “Osechi-Ryori”. Osechi-Ryori (お節料理) is the traditional Japanese New Year’s foods.

Datemaki (伊達巻き) is the popular dish of “Osechi-Ryori”.

Original Datemaki is made of Egg and white fish paste. I arranged Macrobiotic style!

This Datemaki is made of tofu and pumpkin.



I made tofu and pumpkin dough and bake.
 

Bake it until surface is golden brown

 
Turn it over and roll tightly like sushi roll. These steps have to be quick while dough is hot.
 
For keep the roll shape, roll by bamboo mat and cool it down. Slice it next day.
 
 

Customer loved this roll!

I went to picnic with cooking class stutends. It was Poutluck picnic. Student chosed 1 dish from last cooking class menu and cooked.
 
 
 
We had early lunch nearby waterfall. It wsa very relaxing.

 
Student who cooked “Onigiri” she said she tied to make triangle shape, But she couldn’t make it then made round shape. I think make a round shape is more difficult.
