Halloween Party Lunch

Yesterday I went to a Halloween Party Lunch. My friend prepared many delicious Japanese autumn dishes. 


This is Oden and it is a very popular dish. I’m not sure what all is in it. 

This is how Wikipedia describes it: 

Oden is a type of nabemono consisting of several ingredients such as boiled eggs, daikon or konjac, and processed fishcakes stewed in a light, soy-flavored dashi broth. Oden was originally what is now commonly called miso dengaku or simply dengaku; konjac or tofu was boiled and eaten with miso. 



Japanese sweet potatoes are in the foil.  The rice dish has chestnuts in it. The blue and red and yellow cups have pumpkin soup in them.



This is my plate.




We ate and talked and I had a very good time!

It's a Halloween party full of Japanese autumn flavors. Wonderful.🍁
I love Oden too. Even those who don't like meat can enjoy it. I make kinchaku with potatoes, carrots, fried tofu, and mochi, and simmer them together. It's very easy to make, so why not try making it at home? Oden soup is sold at any supermarket.😊
