Mille Feuille Nabe

Ingredients

  • 1 napa cabbage
  • 1 lb thinly sliced beef rolls
  • 4 baby bok choy
  • White and brown shimeji mushrooms
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 piece kombu (dried kelp), 4–6 inches
  • 1/2 cup bonito flakes (katsuobushi)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sake
  • 1 tsp mirin
  • 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Separate the napa cabbage leaves and wash them thoroughly.
  2. Layer about 5 cabbage leaves and beef rolls, the cut into 3 pieces. Repeat until you have enough rolls to arrange in your nabe pot.
  3. Wash and cut each baby bok choy in half to display its rose-like shape.
  4. In a pot, combine water, kombu, bonito flakes, soy sauce, sake, mirin, and salt.
  5. Bring to a gentle boil, then remove the kombu and strain out the bonito flakes to leave a clear stock.
  6. Pour the stock into the nabe pot and arrange the cabbage-beef rolls, bok choy, and shimeji mushrooms.
  7. Bring to a boil and simmer until all ingredients are cooked through.
  8. Enjoy hot directly from the pot with dipping sauces if desired.
