Chef’s Note: The symbolism of eating the konbumaki at new years is to keep the family close together, “tightly wrapped,” like the konbumaki.
Ingredients
6 pieces konbu, rehydrated (cut into 6″ long strips)
6 pieces carrot sticks (3″ long by ¼” thick)
6 pieces gobo sticks (3″ long by ¼” thick)
6 pieces boneless pork shoulder sticks (3″ long by ¼” thick)
6 pieces kanpyo, rehydrated (6″ long)
6 cup dashi
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. shoyu
2 tbsp. sake
Instructions
Place the konbu vertically on a cutting board.
At the bottom end of the konbu place 1 strip of pork, 1 strip of carrot and 1 strip of gobo. Tightly roll the konbu upwards to form a cylinder, wrap the cylinder with the kanpyo and finish with tying a knot to prevent it from unravelling.
Place the dashi, shoyu, sugar and sake in a medium sized pot. Quickly bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add in the konbumaki rolls, cover with a lid and simmer for 30 minutes.
Serve hot or at room temperature.
