Lemon juice tends to stay in the refrigerator after being used once for baking or other purposes, doesn't it? It is a waste of lemon juice that is not easily used in everyday cooking and ends up being thrown away.


We would like to introduce a recipe that allows you to consume a lot of lemon juice in a tasty way. It is "salted lemon nabe"! You will not be able to stop eating it.

How does salted lemon hot pot taste?

Yum! The richness and umami of the chicken broth is perfectly complemented by the sour lemon and salt. It has a refreshing aftertaste, yet is so good that you can't stop eating! I regretted not having tried it before....


I regretted not having tried it before... It gently and gently soaked into my stomach, which was feeling tired from the New Year's binge eating and drinking. Salted lemon is usually eaten in the summer, but it is also great in the middle of winter! Why not add it to your nabe repertoire?

By the way, we recommend adding rice to the soup at the end to make a delicious salted lemon porridge!
