  3. If you use dried shiitake mushrooms in your oden, reconstitute the mushrooms before using them.
  4. To prepare the konjac cake, first, slid shallowly on both the top and bottom side. Next, cut the konjac cake into smaller pieces. After that, boil the konjac cake for 2 minutes to get rid of the konjac smell. Take out and set aside.

  8. If you can find the fish cake rolls that are hollow in the middle, insert a stalk of green onion into the fish cake roll. Cut off the excess on both ends. Then cut the fish cake into smaller pieces.
  9. With other premade fish cakes you can find in the supermarket, simply cut them into smaller sizes. Any shapes that you prefer.
  10. To make the oden dipping sauce, in a clean bowl, add 1 tbsp of miso, 3 tbsp of ketchup, and 1 tbsp dashi. If you want to make your sauce spicy, you can add 1 tsp of wasabi and mix well.
  11. In a clean pot, add 7 cups of dashi. Next, add the cabbage rolls, daikon, carrot, konjac cake, hard-boiled egg, and shiitake mushroom. The rule is to put the root vegetables and the ingredients that would take longer to cook and absorb the flavor first.
  12. Next, add 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tbsp of mirin, 2 tbsp of sake and 1/2 tsp of sugar. Bring it to a boil
  13. When the broth starts to boil, cover with a lid and adjust the heat to medium-high and boil for 10 minutes.
