Shrimp symbolize long life. They are an absolute necessity for Osechi, the New Year's meal.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Remove the hard section and the antennae from the head of the shrimp. It's easy to do this using kitchen scissors.
* Step 2
Use a toothpick to remove the vein from the back.
* Step 3
Put the mirin and sake in a pot and cook off the alcohol.
* Step 4
Add the soy sauce and dashi stock. When it comes to a boil, add the shrimp. Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes. Gently skim off the scum.
* Step 5
Place a paper towel or sheet of aluminum foil on top of the ingredients to use as a drop-lid while it's simmering. I used a paper towel.
* Step 6
After 5 minutes, cool the shrimp and the liquid separately.
* Step 7
You can leave the liquid as-is, but it will be a lot nicer if you strain it through a paper towel. I used a coffee filter to strain it.
* Step 8
Once cooled, cover the shrimp with a paper towel and pour the simmered liquid over them. Let them sit for 1 hour so that they can absorb the flavor. If you can, leave them sitting overnight.
* Step 9
Arrange on a dish, garnish with nandina leaves, and it's done!
