Dinnertime Seaweed Tsukudani

Some time ago I let a lot of nori seaweed get stale so I tried making nori no tsukudani with them. The results were surprisingly tasty, so after some trial and error I got to this recipe!
Amazingly easy and delicious.
Since it's lightly flavored to highlight the natural flavor of the nori, you can eat a lot of it! Lower in salt than usual too! Recipe by Cooking S Papa

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Use 5 sheets of stale nori seaweed. You can use fresh crispy nori of course.
- 2
Rip the nori sheets up in a bowl. Add about 200 ml of water, and leave it to soak for more than 20 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- 3
In the meantime, slice the reconstituted dried shiitake mushrooms. Cut the stems off and slice the caps thinly. Cut the hard end off the stems and slice them up too.
- 4
After 25 minutes the nori looks like this. When it has disintegrated completely into a paste, it's good to go.
- 5
Drain into a sieve.
- 6
Transfer to a pan and add all the flavoring ingredients. Cook over medium heat. When it comes to a boil lower the heat.
- 7
Simmer gently until there's no moisture left in the pan for about 20 minutes
- 8
Tilt the pan; when there's about 1 tablespoon of liquid left in the pan, turn the heat up to high and mix to evaporate that moisture and dry out the nori a little. Be careful not to let it burn.
- 9
When there's almost no moisture left it's done. Store in a jar that's been sterilized in boiling water. Refrigerate when cool.

Nori Seaweed Tsukudani & Cheese Pasta Nori Seaweed Tsukudani & Cheese Pasta
Nori seaweed tsukudani is usually eaten on top of rice or spread on toast. I thought it would go well with pasta, so I tried it! I'm pretty into this right now.You can mix in the grated cheese together with the ingredients, but mixing it in afterwards gives it more presence. If you like cheese, you can further top the pasta with more cheese, which is also delicious.This uses a fair amount of nori seaweed tsukudani, so if you prefer it lighter, adjust to your preference.

Beef Tsukudani (Sweet and Salty Simmered Beef) Beef Tsukudani (Sweet and Salty Simmered Beef)
We received some beef tsukudani from a famous store some time ago as a gift. This recipe is my version of that. If you make a generous amount, you can turn leftovers into onigiri (rice balls) or ochazuke (rice with tea) the next day.Beef offcuts are the best to use for this, since it has a decent amount of fat but not too much. Too much fat makes this too oily, but too little makes it dry. We use a mixture of the fatty parts of wagyu beef and cheap imported beef. Please adjust the ginger, sugar and soy sauce amounts to your taste. I prefer it with lots of ginger. This lasts for 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator, so I always make a lot. For a generous amount to stock in your refrigerator. Recipe by Cha-miru cookpad.japan -

Crunchy Wood Ear Mushroom Tsukudani Crunchy Wood Ear Mushroom Tsukudani
I made this because I was given lots of wood ear mushroom as a gift.This was a recipe that I saw in a book called "Healthy Macrobiotic Recipes", and I decided to try it out. The original recipe didn't use any sugar or mirin, but I thought that it was a bit salty, so I tried adding mirin! This made it slightly sweet, so you can add a little more sugar if you'd like, and I think that it would still taste good.Be careful of the black sesame seeds popping when frying them! For serving 2.
