Tori No Jibu Ni - Jibu-ni Style Chicken
Jibu-ni is a cooking style from Kanazawa region, usually using duck that has been dusted with corn starch prior to simmering in dashi stock. I switch the duck with chicken, but you can use duck meat if it is available. This is sometimes served among the many dishes that make up a kaiseki (Japanese formal dining). ♥
