Instructions
Making the kitsune aburaage
- Fill a pot with enough water to submerge the aburaage and bring it to a boil. Add ½ tsp salt and 2 pieces fried tofu pouch (aburaage) to the pot.
- Place a drop lid on top to help keep them submerged and boil for 3 minutes.
- Remove the aburaage from the pot and wash them in cold water.
- Squeeze out the excess liquid.
- Take another pan and add 100 ml water, 2 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp sake, 2 tbsp mirin and mix. Heat on medium.
- Once the sugar is dissolved, add 2 tbsp tsuyu sauce and 1 tbsp soy sauce.
- Bring the liquid to almost boiling, then turn the heat down to simmer and add the aburaage.
- Place the drop lid on the top and simmer for 15 minutes or until the liquid is reduced by one third.
- Place the aburaage into a container and leave them to cool. Once cooled, place in the fridge for at least a few hours, preferably overnight.
Noodles and Broth
- Boil 2 portions udon noodles according to the instructions on the packaging. Once cooked, drain and rinse with hot water to remove excess starch.
- Pour 500 ml dashi stock into the pan and add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp mirin and turn the heat on high. Boil for 1-2 minutes, turn off the heat and add ¼ tsp salt.
- Cut the seasoned tofu pouches into triangles by cutting in half diagonally.
- Divide the udon into serving bowls, pour the broth over the top and garnish with the seasoned tofu pouches, kamaboko fish cakes and chopped green onion.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- The nutritional value is based on drinking all the soup soup (we do not typically drink up the soup when it comes to udon).
