Simmered Chicken and Miso Meatballs
A sunny sky in winter in Southeast Michigan means cold, and brings cravings for warmth and comfort. This Japanese nabemono meal is a satisfying chicken soup served with a bit of fun while evoking fantasies of far away places at our familiar dining room table.
The meatballs are flavored with miso, ginger, and garlic. Tossing them from hand to hand makes the surface smooth so that when they are added to the hot-pot they are soft and very attractive.
We cherish the warmth in autumn as such days become rare: one last opportunity to grill, to enjoy the sunshine, the patio, and the golden trees.
