Before the winter chill totally disappear, don't miss eating nabe. Nabe is the perfect Japanese winter food. It's a hotpot where any type of meat, seafood or vegetables can be used. (Well, as long as they compliment each other's taste.)
It's really easy to make. Slice some meat or seafood, and some vegetables. Boil them in water. Add some seasoning. Sip the soup and eat the rest. That easy!

Don't believe me?
