Days Zouni Soup!
"Zouni" or "Ozouni" is the soup containing mochi rice cakes. This Japanese traditional soup is the vital food for the New Year’s holidays.
But it is not always easy to introduce the Zouni because the style and recipe of Zouni is inconsistent, depending on the region and family, recipe of Zouni is throughly different.
In my family, my mom cooks white miso sweet style zouni soup on the new year's day. It have the appearance of Kyoto style, but our home town is Osaka and my mom's origin is Ashiya near Kobe.
My family's zouni soup is simple style containing carrot, daikon radish, some greens. This year, my family's zouni have yuzu orange peel flavor.
And day 2nd, my mom cooks soup based on soy source. It is also tasty. Evary year, our family have these style zouni soup in the new year's holidays.
What's your family style for new year meal?
