Nanakusagayu (Seven Herbs Rice Porridge / Congee) Recipe 七草粥 レシピ

Nanakusagayu is the seven-herb rice porridge that we eat in the morning of January 7th to bring longevity and health.

Below are the nanakusa (seven herbs):
– Seri (water dropwort, Oenanthe javanica)
– Nazuna (shepherd’s purse)
– Gogyō (cudweed, gnaphalium affine)
– Hakobera (chickweed, stellaria media)
– Hotokenoza (nipplewort, lapsana apogonoides)
– Suzuna (turnip)
– Suzushiro (Daikon)

Of course you can only use daikon radish or whatever ingredients you like to cook this porridge! Good for your stomach after a big meal 😉
