"From classic oden to regional roots, to oden that adults will love and that goes well with alcohol!
Oden-den-den♪ Oden with memories.
The faces of many people come to mind.
If there is oden, that alone is satisfying!
For everyday meals, for entertaining!
Put in lots of your favorite ingredients and enjoy!

"From the 'Introduction'
Oden-den-den♪
I feel like oden is something where everyone's various memories are simmering away. Just talking about which ingredients you like makes everyone get heated.
'Daikon radish is in a class of its own!'
'You can't leave out boiled eggs!'
'No, the star of our oden is definitely beef tendon!' or
'I make oden just to eat chikuwa-bu (fish cake roll)!'
'Ehh, I don't get what chikuwa-bu is!' and so on.
'No, no, the shadow protagonist is definitely hanpen (fish cake), after all.'
'No, of course, fish paste products are the royal road.'
And so on and so forth...
Through various oden experiences, each person's preferences have been formed, and I almost want to see it stand on the podium as a representative of common people's lives.
In my house, too, in the winter, a large aluminum pot containing oden used to sit on the stove.
Even at New Year's, apart from the elaborate New Year's dishes, there would be a big aluminum pot of oden.
I guess it was a feeling of being relieved as long as there was oden.
(Omitted)
Oden along with various memories.
Various people who come to mind along with oden.
Simmering with feelings, I pray that this oden book will be useful for everyone's love of oden♪
Comment from the publisher

A collection of oden recipes, a winter staple devised by Edamon, has arrived!
Introducing everything from classics to regional oden, and even oden that adults will love that goes well with alcohol.
Furthermore, there is trivia such as 'Local Oden' and 'Oden Ingredient Encyclopedia'.
It is guaranteed that you will want to talk about your own home's 'oden'."

Born in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture on March 22, 1955
Naomi Edamoto, a graduate of the Meiji University Faculty of Letters
https://www.meiji.ac.jp/koho/meijin/leading/edamoto.html
is a classmate of my wife and me (we called her 'Edamo-chan'),
but we haven't met since graduating from university,
and I only see her face a few times a year in her books.

Since she was a former actor (Theater Company Tenkei Gekijo),
I enjoyed the posed photos this time too.
She's so young. I can't believe we're the same age!

The cover is
'Mom's Oden: A blend of bonito and kelp dashi.
The classic soy sauce flavor of the Kanto region'
p.16

The title page and back cover are
'Dad's Oden: The chicken bone soup dashi is the key.
It's a simple salt flavor.'
p.12

'When I became an adult, I went to an oden shop with my lover at the time,
and for the first time, I ate oden with a clear salt-flavored soup, and it was an eye-opener.
Wanting to get closer to that stylish taste, I tried boiling beef tendon and
stretched myself.
Inviting friends over to have an Oden Party (abbreviated as Oden-pa!)
is also what started with that salt-flavored oden.
We cleared the table in a room of about 8 tatami mats, and about 20 acquaintances and
their friends gathered, and 3 kilos of boiled beef tendon
sold out in an instant.'
p.6
'Oden-den-den♪'

'Minokamo
Around my hometown of Minokamo City, [Gifu Prefecture],
oden is miso-flavored. Since it's close, it has parts that are similar to Nagoya's food culture,
and there are many miso dishes for one reason or another. For oden,
there are things simmered in miso close to Okazaki's local dish 'Nimiso', or
things with sweet miso added at the end.'
p.66
'Hometown Oden 1
Gifu Miso-simmered Oden'

About 60 years ago,
my grandmother from Fukue, Aichi Prefecture
called a dish of simmering daikon radish in Nagoya miso
'Onimiso', and
as a child, I remembered wondering what 'Demon Miso' was.
