  • 2 potatoes
  • 2 carrots
  • 4 boiled eggs
  • 1 blocks of konnyaku (transparent yam starch cake)
  • 2 blocks of fried tofu (ganmodoki or atsuage)
  • 2-4 fish cakes
  • 4-5 tbsps of soy sauce
  • 1 tsp of sugar
  • 2 tbsps of sake (Japanese rice wine)
  • *You may use oden seasoning sold at Asian stores instead of using sake, soysauce, and sugar.

PREPARATION:

Cut daikon into thick rounds. Cut potatoes in half. Peel boiled eggs. Cut other ingredients into large pieces. Boil 4 cups of dashi soup stock in a large pot or donabe pot. Add ingredients into the pot. Add sake, soy sauce, and sugar in the pot. Turn down the heat to low and simmer for 40-60 minutes. *The longer you cook oden, the better the taste. Add dashi soup stock and soy sauce as needed.
