Shippoku Udon: A Speciality of the Sanuki Region

This is a traditional regional speciality of the Sanuki region, in Kagawa prefecture. You don't see it often listed on the menus of udon restaurants, but it's a very popular homemade dish, especially on New Year's Eve where it's eaten as "toshikoshi udon" (year-end udon) instead of the usual toshikoshi soba. The vegetable stock really warms you up.

The dashi (stock) that comes out of the daikon radish and carrot should blend well with the flavor of the aburaage (fried tofu).
Let the soup rest for about 2 hours after adding the soy sauce so that the flavors of the soy sauce and dashi can really blend together. For 2 servings. Recipe by Danshinokakurega
