This was prepared for me often when I was a child. Smile widely after eating this and you'll have black teeth. It's a nostalgic dish with the memory of my mother's home cooking and the smile of a snot-nosed kid.

Adding pork enhances the richness of this soup. It also taste great with rice, eaten like a rice porridge. Recipe by Sakaeryouriten

5 servings
  1. 1 White squid (aori-ika)

  3. 200 grams Thinly sliced pork belly

  6. 1500 ml Bonito flavored dashi soup
  7. 1 Miso
  8. 1 dash Salt

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Remove the tentacles and innards of the squid without breaking the ink sac, and rinse. Remove the thin membrane, rinse, then cut into 5 cm strips.

  2. 2

    Thinly slice the pork into bite-sized pieces. Break the island tofu into large bite-sized bits. Chop up the nigana as you like.

  3. 3

    Boil the bonito dashi soup. Add the squid, pork, and tofu. Add the miso to taste (I recommend leaving it on the light side).

  4. 4

    Add the squid ink, soy sauce, and salt to taste. Add the nigana, and then it's done.
