Ochazuke
Japanese Rice Soup
A simple and comforting Japanese dish consisting of cooked rice, typically leftover, served in a bowl and doused with hot green tea or dashi broth. It's often topped with savory ingredients and is a popular late-night meal or a quick, light snack.
๐ง ์ฌ๋ฃ
- 1 bowl (about 150-200g) Cooked rice(Preferably slightly cooled leftover rice. Warm it gently if very cold.)
- 200 ml Green tea or Dashi broth(Use good quality sencha or genmaicha for green tea, or a prepared dashi. Ensure it is very hot.)
- 1 Umeboshi (pickled plum)(Remove the pit before serving, or serve whole and instruct the diner to remove it.)
- 2 tbsp Salted salmon flakes(Flaked cooked salmon, preferably salted. Canned or leftover grilled salmon works well.)
- 1 sheet Nori (seaweed)(Cut into thin strips (kizami nori) or crumbled for garnish.)

- โUsing leftover, slightly cooled rice is ideal as it holds its shape better when the hot liquid is added.
- โFor a richer flavor, consider using a bonito-kombu dashi.
- โAdjust the amount of liquid to your preference โ some like it soupy, others prefer less.
- โThis dish is incredibly versatile; feel free to experiment with other toppings like grilled fish, pickles, or even a raw egg yolk (ensure it's safe to consume).
