A Happy New Year!
It was very nice in this morning.
We call “new year’s morning” “gantan”. In gantan, we eat food called “osechi”.
The picture down is osechi I made.
This is not for one person, but for one family.
Usually osechi has three boxes. We start with the food in the first box drinking “toso (a sort of sake). The second box mainly has vinegared food and grilled fishes. The third box has boiled food.
We don’t finish all the osechi at a time. Osechi includes a lot of food that can be kept for a long time, and we eat it until about the third day. However, eating osechi at each meal is tiring, so after gantan, we often eat something else with osechi.
Thank you.
