Prepare a delectable Yosenabe by cutting mushrooms, dicing chicken and fish, soaking clams, boiling spinach and cabbage. Roll them in cabbage leaves, cut into pieces. Boil a flavorful broth with sake, mirin, soy sauce, and dashi. Cook veggies. Transfer to a fondue burner tableside. Guests use skewers or chopsticks to cook chicken and fish, dipping in ponzu. Ladle soup and veggies into individual bowls for a communal feast.
Soak the clams in lightly salted, filtered water for five or six hours. Remove and rinse well.
Boil the spinach lightly.
Place three leaves of cabbage on sushi mat. Place spinach inside. Roll.
Cut rolls into pieces of about 1 1⁄2” each.
Put sake, mirin, soy sauce and dashi in pot. Bring it to boil. Cook vegetables till they are tender.
Move hot pot to table over fondue type burner. Have your guests use skewers or chopsticks to cook chicken and fish in hot pot, then use ponzu dipping sauce, if they like. Ladle some soup and veggies in their individual bowls, too.
