Kanazawa Oden
In a pot of clear dashi, pieces of kuruma-fu (wheat gluten) with holes float gently. When you lift them with your chopsticks, they are heavy with broth and melt in your mouth—Kanazawa Oden is a beloved soul food enjoyed all year long. Its essence lies in the gentle dashi made from kombu and fish flakes, accompanied by local ingredients like kuruma-fu and babayagai. In winter, 'Kanimen' appears—a luxurious dish featuring crab meat and eggs packed into a shell. It is a specialty that requires significant time and effort to prepare. It is said that the name 'Kanazawa Oden' became widely known around 200<0xC2>9, later leading to the formation of an association of long-established local shops. There is a sense of comfort in being able to step through the shop curtains regardless of whether it is the cold or hot season. Beyond the rising steam, you can glimpse the true food culture of Kanazawa.
