Japanese Terms N

nabemono - are quick-cooked stews. "Nabemono dishes are a hearty wintertime specialty, prepared from fish, seafood, chicken, meat and/or vegetables in a bubbling cauldron right at your table. Serving trays piled high with raw ingredients arrive at the table, then everyone pitches in with the cooking, finally eating together out of the communal pot. Nabemono restaurants are very down-to-earth places, usually with a rustic decor reflecting nabemono's origins in Japan's rural farming regions. Nabemono are also served in pub-style izakaya restaurants, in places specializing in regional cuisines, and in private homes."
