This red three-tiered container is used only for this season to serve the Osechi dish. I bought it when I got married 28 years ago.
This is my Osechi. In the top box, I put boiled shrimp and grilled yellow tail fish. In the second box, pink and white fish paste, sweet fried egg, cooked black beans, small fish, and kelp. And the bottom one includes various vegetables. And another container has vinegared dish of white radish, carrot and mackerel. They are all regarded as auspicious food in Japan.
Tomorrow we're going to have a New Year party. My two sisters' families will come to my house, so in total twelve people will join the party. They are looking forward to meet Rintaro.

ReplyDeleteI hope your plan will get on the right track this year.
Thank you for making this show on the pictures. It seems very good, though it is very different from our European food. I think it's healthier! Compliment for you and your country.

ReplyDeleteWow, I can see that you were VERY busy, not only cooking these foods, but arranging them so beautifully in the boxes. Thanks for the photos, so I have a better understanding. I hope everyone enjoyed these treats and the effort behind them!
