ReplyDeleteHi Lina,
ReplyDeleteIt is one of my favourites. I love it with good quality Japanese beef, cut into thin slices. They just melt in your mouth.
Oh! You make me cravbe for some now! XD
ReplyDeleteYum! I got one of those gas burners with a view to making sukiyaki.....Do you know if Chrysanthemum leaves are available in Australia? That's a delicious addition to sukiyaki in Japan that I can't seem to get my hands on!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ms Chef, those burners are great for cooking sukiyaki and nabe at the table. Yes, in Japan kikuna is sometimes added to sukiyaki. I haven't been able to find it yet in Australia. Let me know if you do find it.
