This time last year…

Published by Donna at 8:49 am under culture, vlog

Last year, I filmed a vlog to record my mom-in-law’s secret “simple ozoni” recipe for posterity — and so I’d remember how to make it in coming years. Unfortunately, that was before I discovered the correct encoding settings, so the video quality is pretty poor. (Oh, and let’s not even talk about that bad haircut!) Nevertheless, the content is what’s important! I’m posting this early, just in case anyone wants to try their hand at making this simplified version of a traditional new year’s dish.

Happy new year!

    Geez. I feel like I just watched this a week before. Is it already 2008? The year went by so fast! Happy New Year!

    Hi Donna,

    Thanks for the ozoni video. The replayed video stops right after you mention washing the mochi. But I did find the original video with the rest of it:

    Happy Year of the Rat!

    Yum! I loooove ozouni! Sadly, KS is allergic to seafood - maybe I can try this with chicken. :D

    Wow - that’s like the deluxe version. My Mom’s recipe was basically a simple dashi made with dried shrimp, and of course mizuna and mochi. I always thought that it could use a little more than a dash of shoyu. She’d make disapproving noises as I added shoyu to taste to my serving. :D
