A popular meal especially during winter in Japan is “Nabe” or “Nabe Ryōri.” To make this hot pot dish, we usually place a small portable stove on the dinner table, and boil meat, fish, vegetables, and noodles all together in a pot of broth. We serve the food as soon as it is cooked, and the family all eat it together. There are many different kinds of Nabe depending on the type of broth and the varieties of meat, fish, vegetable and noodle that are used.
