Notes
While nabe is a traditional Japanese meal, you can also cook it with any type of meat or vegetables. The main ingredient in nabe is a simple soup base. This base is used to add meat and other ingredients to the soup. The soup should be simmered until the meat is tender. The broth should be spicy and rich. If the broth has too many spices, it will be a bad flavor.
