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