Instructions to make No Mess-Ups! Chikuzen-Ni/Onishime (Japanese Stew) - Perfect For New Years and Picnics:

1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and peel the taro. Shave off the burdock skin with the back of your knife and then cut into chunks about 5 cm long.
2. Peel the lotus root and the carrot, then cut into pieces 8 mm thick (It will be prettier if you use decorative cuts on the lotus root and cut out the carrots using a flower mold). Rope-twist the konnyaku. You can do this by first slicing the konnyaku into slices that are 8 mm thick, and then cutting a slit down the middle of each piece. Insert one end of the piece into the slit and pull to get a twisted konnyaku.
3. Wash the bamboo shoot and cut into bite-sized pieces. Reconstitute the shiitake with 1 cup of warm water. Remove the veins from the snow peas, then blanch them in salt water.
4. Parboiling - Boil the burdock for about 10 minutes in plenty of water. Then add the lotus root and the bamboo shoot and boil for another 5 minutes. Skim off the scum occasionally.
5. In a separate pot, parboil the konnyaku in boiling water. Marinate the chicken in 1 tablespoon sake and 1 tablespoon soy sauce (both not listed).
6. Heat some oil in a pot, then cook the chicken pieces skin-side down first.
7. Add all of the prepared ingredients (except the snow peas) into the pot, then add the dashi and the shiitake water and let it come to a simmer. Cover with a small lid that sits right on top of the food (called an otoshibuta or a drop lid; you can make one with aluminum foil) and simmer for about 15 minutes.
8. Add the ☆ seasonings and simmer some more. When you can easily stick a skewer through the taro, turn off the heat. Serve in a bowl, sprinkle on the snow peas, and you are done!
