Osechi Ryori is traditionally a meal that is served during New Years in Japan. I’m a big lover of New Years “Japanese Style as it’s a very important holiday, and there are so many things that happen during this holiday. Osechi Ryori is perhaps one of my most favourite things about New Years. Incredibly artistic foods are put together and (normally) put into bento-like containers. They are normally stacked two or three high, and are packed with tasty food. One of my favourite Osechi foods is the Datemaki. It’s basically a type of egg omelet that is rolled. It’s very good. Please check out the picture to get a better idea of what it looks like.
If you’d like to know more about Osechi Ryori, you can visit the article on wikipedia about it. It also gives a brief history. Next year, my mother is planning on making it since I’ll be there this New Years, so I’ll have pictures and possibly video!
