As soon as it turns cold, kiritanpo hot pot is an essential hot pot in this northern Japan family's menu. I wanted to write this recipe down since it's a taste I've enjoyed since childhood.

Please separate the tougher center part of the napa cabbage from the leafy part. Add the chicken with the skin on, this makes the broth delicious. Our house always uses 2 packs of string konnyaku, but you can use just 1 pack if you prefer. Recipe by Rinkachan

Taste the soup and adjust the amount of broth seasonings since the strength depends on other ingredients and the amount of water.
