Cooking tips
- Since the vegetables release moisture, use only about 150ml of water to prevent the dish from becoming bland.
- Covering with parchment paper during simmering helps the heat and seasoning penetrate evenly into all the ingredients.
- Adding butter at the end gives the dish a uniquely Japanese richness and a smooth, velvety finish.
