- 1
Remove the heads and innards from the iriko, and split them in half so that more flavor can be extracted. Use 25 g of the shredded iriko.
- 2
Put the konbu seaweed and iriko in water, and leave for at least 2 hours. Ideally leave it to soak overnight.
- 3
Heat to bring out the umami slowly. Be sure to use low heat. Take the iriko and konbu out just before the water comes to a boil.
- 4
Add the thick-cut bonito flakes and simmer for 25 minutes. Watch the heat so that it doesn't come to a rolling boil.
- 5
Remove any scum carefully. After 25 minutes have passed, add the thin bonito flakes, and simmer for another 5 minutes.
- 6
Turn off the heat, and wait 5 minutes until the bonito flakes have sunk to the bottom of the pan. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve. Press down with cooking chopsticks as you strain the liquid to extract it all from the bonito flakes.

Add usukuchi soy sauce and salt, and the soup is done. For my kitsune udon recipe, see.

Udon noodles in miso soup Udon noodles in miso soup
My take on 'tanuki udon', using miso pase to add more flavour to the broth. Just to warn you I never 'measure' how much of the ingredients I use, so the measurements in the list are a very rough estimate (I'sorry >_<) Also this recipe is inspired by the recipes on: justonecookbook.com

This is what my father would eat late at night.

Yamagata-Style Ozoni Soup: Also Great as Udon or Soba Broth Yamagata-Style Ozoni Soup: Also Great as Udon or Soba Broth
The broth from burdock root and maitake mushrooms is exquisite. Although it's Yamagata-style, it was well-received by people in the Kanto region too. The seasoning ratio is an easy-to-remember 1:1:1.The origin of this recipe: Sometimes I crave my mother's cooking. But I often forget what goes into it, so I decided to write it down. It's a bit self-indulgent, but it's delicious, and I want everyone to try making it.At our house, we make this on New Year's Eve, eat it with soba noodles to ring in the New Year, and also enjoy it as ozoni soup for the New Year.
