Shizuoka Oden
What surprises await in the rich black broth? Skewered Shizuoka oden!
Shizuoka Oden introduction
One of the most unique features of Shizuoka Oden (静岡おでん, Shizuoka oden) is its jet-black broth and skewered ingredients. The distinct dark color of the broth comes from the time-honored tradition of continuously adding to the secret soup base in each shop over the years. The broth is made by simmering beef tendon stock with rich soy sauce, creating a deeply flavored black soup. It's served with skewered morsels, topped with sprinkles of bonito flakes and aonori (green seaweed powder)—a signature Shizuoka touch. Beloved by locals, you can even find this comforting dish in candy stores, making it a treasured part of everyday life in Shizuoka.
