How to cook

1. Boil the chicken in a pot (the longer you boil it, the softer it will be, and the more flavor goes into the dashi broth).
In Tsushima, buy one whole chicken and use that (it is a specialty store where the chicken will be pre-cut into easy-to-eat pieces). -
2. Chop the vegetables and other ingredients.
-
3. Add the seasonings and bring to a simmer.
-
4. Add the chopped vegetables.
-
5. Put homemade soba noodles or boiled somen noodles in a bowl, then pour the Iriyaki over, broth and all.
Fish Iriyaki is often seasoned with salt and soy sauce only.
The fish is generally white fish, sea bream, or young bluefin tuna that is cleaned and added whole.
