Dango-jiru (だんご汁)
Dango-jiru is one of my favorite local specialty in Oita.
It is made by boiling flat noodles made from wheat flour together
with ingredients such as radishes, carrots, burdock roots, aroids,
and shiitake mushrooms in miso flavored dashi (broth).

Farmers who were busy with farm work invented the dish because they
could cook it easily and eat it quickly.

だんご汁は私が大好きな大分の郷土料理です。
小麦粉で作った平たい麺を、大根、人参、ごぼう、里芋やしいたけなどの
具とともに、味噌味のダシで煮たものです。農作業で忙しい農家の人が、
簡単にでき、さっと食べられるものとして考案したのもがだんご汁です。
