Ingredients
Preparing the abura-age:
Cut the abura-age in half to create an opening for the pouch.
De-oil: Since the abura-age is deep fried, this helps remove the excess oil.
Set a pot of water to boil (enough water to cover the abura-age). When boiling, add the abura-age and boil for 2-3 minutes. Drain.
Simmer:
â¢About 1-1/2 cups dashi or plain water with 1 tsp. of dashi granules
â¢3 T. sugar
â¢2 T. sake
â¢2 T. mirin
â¢4 T. shoyu
Combine ingredients in a pot and set to boiling. Once it reaches a boil, add the de-oiled abura-age and simmer for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, take off the heat and allow to cool in the liquid. When cooled, drain and squeeze gently to remove excess liquid.
