Zou-ni

Zoni is a soup with rice cakes(mochi) and vegetables, and is an essential dish for celebrating the New Year. In the Kanto area, zoni is generally prepared as a clear soup with square mochi, while in the Kansai it is made with bean paste and round mochi. But the seasoning and other ingredients are different according to each region and household. It is the special feature of zoni to bring out the richness of local color with additional ingredients, like fish, chicken or special regional items.
