Sukiyaki

Sukiyaki is a cozy one-pot warming dish for cold winter days.

This recipe for sukiyaki, a traditional Japanese winter one-pot dish, is prepared à la nabemono, Japanese hot pot-style. It’s traditionally served with a dipping bowl of raw beaten egg. However, if vegan is your persuasion, you can skip that step. Serve with white rice and enjoy the warming simplicity of the flavors.
