Refreshing Bonito Dashi Chilled and Melty Winter Melon Stew
This summer has been scorching hot, and it feels like our bodies are melting away. We want to prepare meals without relying too much on heat. However, we still want to make sure we get enough vegetables. That’s why we have prepared a chilled stew featuring winter melon.
The broth is made with fragrant and slightly acidic bonito dashi, which enhances the subtle sweetness of the winter melon. The broth seeps into the winter melon, creating a jade-colored dish that melts in your mouth.
The addition of thinly sliced ginger adds a refreshing accent to the flavor.
Winter melon helps to cool down the body heat and has diuretic properties that can reduce swelling. It is also rich in dietary fiber and vitamin C, making it an excellent vegetable for relieving constipation and promoting healthy skin. Let’s enjoy its delicious taste while maintaining our health!
