I normally make a quick kimpira burdock dish but one day I received high-quality burdock roots. I didn't want to waste by making my standard dish, so I took the time to make this delicious kimpira. Since then this recipe has been our regular in my family. This is a very good recipe so please have a try!!*At Step 2, you can boil water on the stove and make dashi stock in a saucepan. Taste the dashi first and if you think it might be too strong, the taste in the resultant dish will be perfect. *Adjust the amount the chili pepper to your liking. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by Maa-a

I love burdock root (gobo) salad. I've been making this for ages since it's a firm family favorite. It's great to pack in lunchboxes too!Pay attention when you're adding the seasoning ingredients at Step 5. Also be sure to dry the vegetables well in the prior step, or the salad will be watery. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by Donpintan

I made a healthy simmered dish.I usually stop simmering burdock roots while they are still pretty crunchy to enjoy their texture, but if you prefer them to be softer, please add more water and continue simmering them for longer.Keep an eye on the pan as it simmers with the lid on that it doesn't over-cook and burn. For about 3 servings. Recipe by Mokobu- mama

My child has asthma and when the season changes, his asthma worsens.Daikon radishes, lotus roots and burdock roots are known for calming coughs. Burdock roots, daikon radishes and cucumber are for lowering a high temperature. Carrots and sesame seeds are good for the lung.You can use ground sesame.The sesame seeds absorb the excess moisture from the vegetables and prevents the salad from becoming soggy.

Sweet and Savory Burdock Root is a popular dish offered in delis.I've always had a constant craving for that taste, so I recreated it at home.When deep frying the burdock root, separate the pieces with your hands while adding them to the oil. Otherwise, they will get stuck together. It's easy if you shake together the burdock and katakuriko in a nylon or plastic bag filled with air. Recipe by Nassan

This is the recipe my mother came up with after a long process of trial and error to recreate her favorite pounded burdock root dish--one that she chose by taste testing at different eateries. It has since become a family favorite.The burdock root should weigh about 230 g unrinsed with skin on, and 200 g after prepping. It's important to preserve the "bite" of the burdock root, so be careful not to over cook in Step 2. Recipe by Nanaiku

I think every household has their own way to make 'Stir Fried and Simmered Beef and Burdock Root', but this is my method.If you stir fry the burdock root in the same frying pan you stir fried the beef in, the burdock root will not be properly coated by oil. Even if it's a bother, stir fry it in a separate pan for better, richer flavor. If you do stir fry the beef and burdock root together the flavor will be lighter. Please use whichever method you prefer. The meat stays tender even if you reheat this in the microwave. For 4 servings. Recipe by Asamato

I tried coming up with a simplified recipe for "pounded burdock root." Even without pounding the burdock, it has a wonderfully crunchy texture. I simplified the seasoning to make the ratio relatively easy to remember.I used toasted sesame seeds this time, but you could use ground sesame. Blanch the burdock to your preference. If you do decide to pound the burdock, do so with a pestle etc. in Step 5, after draining the burdock. Recipe by Kagocha-

I often make this a lot and keep it in the fridge. We can use it for many cookings - for the ingredients of "bowl of rice" like "katsu-don (pork cutlet on rice)", or "takikomi-gohan (mixed rice)", or many "simmered foods". So maybe when you keep it for further use, it's better to make this lightly seasoned. Of course, it's tasty to have only by itself.

This is a traditional Japanese table dish and one of my husband’s favorites 💕

I changed the burdock tsukudani that I always make into shigureni-style, and added konnyaku. Recipe by FarmersK
