I watched original one, but not the Tokyo one yet!! Loved the idea of hot pot for one!! 🍲
+Seonkyoung Longest Yeah! I learned from JOC readers that there are Korean versions of the drama too! So cool! I want to watch what Korean type of foods are served at the diner!
Ahhh! This! I love midnight diner, and was hoping someone would recreate the recipes! I hope you do all of them! And the ones from Samurai Gourmet too! Thank you!!
+Kiran Arain Yes we will cover majority of it (some I can't get ingredients in the US). We finished making recipes from most of Netflix season one.
Did you make Samurai Gourmet recipes too? I love that show!
Perfect for Fall! I appreciate the focus on meals for one. arigatou!
I made this tonight for a quick simple meal after work. it is very tasty. I think I'll check out the midnight diner drama too
Oh you'll love the TV show! Hope you enjoy and check my version of the recipes on my blog and TH-cam channel. ;)
oh yes I have been watching. it's been a long time since a drama got my attention. and it will be nice try out the rest of your recipes from the series too
I appreciate how this only serves one person. Ever since my sister moved out to live with her fiance, I usually cook portions that are for two instead of one.
:c
I really like the Midnight Diner series too! Thank you for the simple recipe ☺️ It inspired me to make my my own version as I didn't have enough katsuobushi. I used part katsuobushi, dried anchovy, and thin onion slices and ginger to make my broth. I only had king oysters so I julienned them to take the place of enoki mushrooms!
i love this series. so easy and also great for busy people who don't have a lot of time. especially great for eating late when getting off work late! thank you!
Ha! We must think alike, that's exactly what I thought and wrote in my blog post: www.justonecookbook.com/hot-pot-for-one/ :) xo
I love watching "The Midnight Diner series" and "Samurai Gourmet" 2 of my favorite series on Netflix. Thanks for sharing the recipes
I am watching the series for the second time and paying more attention to the recipes. Thank for publishing this and the other recipes from Midnight Diner. I am learning to cook Japanese food and enjoying it a lot!
This is such a great idea. I watch Midnight Diner: Tokyo Series and I loved the show.
Lots of love from India. I hope to visit Japan soon.
+Afshan Shaikh Thank you so much! I'll be sharing non video recipes from the show on the blog too (first recipe was Egg Tofu), so do check out my blog too!
Just One Cookbook I'm so excited to try this! I absolutely loved this show! I hope you make more recipes from the show! I would be ever so grateful! Thanks!!!
I have a few recipes left from Season 1 on Netflix (actual Season 3 of the show). I hope you enjoy all the recipes I created. I'll be sharing another one soon. This is the Midnight Diner category where I'll add recipes: www.justonecookbook.com/recipe-index/featured/midnight-diner-series/
Hello, I enjoyed that show and am glad you shared your take on the recipie. :) What do you mean though when you say actual Season 3 of the show? Were there other seasons not aired on Netflix? I only have season one on Netflix :)
AJ Siytangco The series has 3 seasons actually. Netflix bought the rights to the 3rd season and promoted it as a "Netflix Original", hence, in Netflix it starts at season 1.
As soon as I saw that you are trying to share these recipes I subscribed.
I love that series! Just watching the way they show the way the foods are being cooked is one of the reasons I love the series. I hope they make more. Your recipe looks awesome
I hope so too! I'm happy to hear you enjoy the series, too! I'll be posting more recipes on both youtube channel and on my blog (no videos) so stay tuned!
I was obsessed with Midnight Diner! Thank for for making this series.
Mindnight Diner...and Just One Cookbook...FTW! YAY!
Thank you!!! xoxo
Thanks again. That was a good episode too. Poor auntie. 😭
Midnight Diner put me on the road to learning more about Japanese cuisine. I'm now fluent in yakisoba and soon hotpots. The Midnight Diner movie was also pretty good.
I am still in the middle of movie and didn't finish. It's a good movie! So happy you're enjoying the show! :)
THERES A MOVIE????!!!! OMG i just finished it and want to watch more
I watch Midnight Diner everyday. Really enjoy the stories and the Japanese dishes in it. Now I know where to go for the recipes. Thank you 😊
this made me happy! please cook all recipes from the series.
+tinayski Yeah we have been filming/shooting recipes from the show and only a few more left for Netflix season 1 (in real show season 3). 😊👍
knowing that there are more seasons made my day. this means more recipes to look forward to. Somehow there's a melancholic vibe to the show that makes it so endearing
I totally agree! :)
Hi love the series 💕 too!Just a quick question the Bonito flakes are discarded or you use them for something else?🤔
I would love to see a series of these. One Pot/One (or Two) Person Hot Pots.
The many ways to get creative with it.
I saw your MILLE-FEUILLE NABE on your website before I saw this.
I was thinking of making a one person size.
I am a huge fan of 深夜食堂! Not only the food, but also the stories behind the customers, what a wonderful TV series. Beside 深夜食堂, I also enjoy watching 孤独のグルメ, 松重 豊‘s performance is so good!
BTW I have a question, for the bonito stock, I have got some bonito stock powder at home, can I use them instead? Thank you!
So happy to hear you enjoy the show too! A lot of people told me about 孤独のグルメ. Maybe I will have to work on it one day. Yes you can use katuso dashi powder too, BUT as you can see, there are not "seasonings" and making GOOD dashi is the key to this dish. I highly recommend making your own katsuo dashi for this recipe. You'll know the difference when you compare the two (dashi powder vs. homemade dashi). :)
Thank you for your reply! I see, so I will try to prepare the stock by myself.😉
Tried this tonight. Was great. Thankyou.
I am looking forward to cooking your recipe for Yosanabe and would appreciate your suggestions for side dishes
More hotpot for one recipes please ❤️🙏🏼
I watched the “Tokyo stories “ series of Midnight Diner a few years ago and just discovered the original (?) series on Netflix, I love it! Too bad there’s not more episodes but I’m going to re-watch the Tokyo stories series again! Thank you for making some of the recipes, I’ll try them out 😀
Please, continue with this series
could you be kind to post us a japanese vegetarian soup recipe with noodles! easy to prepare! Thank you
Dig the easy midnight concept! Thank you for another great recipe.
+Todd Berliner You will LOVE this Japanese drama Midnight Diner on Netflix. We will have you guys over soon!
Thank you Joe!
I cooked it yesterday and it was fantastic!!!! Oishii
Glad you liked it!!
I can't thank you enough for this recipe. I'm single and it's nice to see a nabe recipe for one. The other day, I bought a 1/4 hakusai, very beautiful, at the local supermarket for only 60yen so I'll use it in your recipe. Cheers and thanks!
Love a dish in cook in donabe.
I love your cooking......simple and very healthy food.
+Shirley Heise Thank you very much 😊🙏
Hi Nami..I tried tonight cooking fresh Ramen with shrimps and vegetables and it tasted good. I tried to get your recipe for fresh Ramen stir fry but did not see one, so I used your Yakisoba recipe for the
Ramen. Do you have a different recipe for fresh ramen stir fry? Thanks...you are awesome. Love from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Keep giving out your excellent recipes. xoxo
What's fresh ramen stir fry? In Japanese cooking, "ramen" is usually in broth, not in stir fry. Except for Cold ramen, or dipping ramen. When I hear "stir fry" I can only think of yakisoba.... If you have a picture of a dish, can you send me?
I really love your recipes, and I've been using them to recreate the dishes my mom would make for me as a little kid. Thank you!
I’m thinking about getting a Donabe and am just learning how to use and what to cook.
Love the recipe! So easy and comforting. Video work is good too!! 💕💕
+Nyonya Cooking Thank you! I got your live notification but noticed later. I'll watch it soon! Hope I can watch you live one day!
My live video didn't work too well. The sound didn't sync up properly. Sigh. Hopefully next live session will be better...
+Nyonya Cooking Don't worry, everyone who tried first time has issue so it's not you. At least you have courage!!! I love how natural you are on the show. Something I seem struggle even after a year of speaking in TH-cam videos... 😂 keep up great work! Love your videos!
Aww...thank you for the encouragement
Cute video and relaxing flute music playing. I love it and it's simplicity.
Perfect
New subscriber here..bcoz of d midnite series recipe 😁👍
We really enjoy "Midnight Diner". Love the endings. Besides your great recipes that was a great recommendation.
Thank you! I'll be posting new one in April. :)
Nami-san! Thank you so much for posting! I have subscribed and will watch ALL you videos and learn! This takes me back to Tokyo and my childhood and when I cannot travel to see my parents this helps so much to remember the classic family meals!

Just One Cookbook I am going to try making baked ham katsu too. おいしそうですね😁
That one is delicious!
After watching your hot pot video (which looks delicious), I went over to Netflix to watch Midnight Diner. I loved it and the food. Thank you for developing recipes for the food on the show. It looks really tasty and I would like to try it at home.
Hope you like the show! It's not as popular for Japanese people, but it's a big hit among foreigners (people who live outside of Japan). :)
Sopisacat I

So I just subscribed to your channel and saw you were making Hot Pot for one. I instantly thought of Midnight Diner! I love that show. I can't wait to make this! I also like your music choice!
Thank you for subscribing! I just shared Tanmen recipe from the show. :)
Love the midnight diner drama , what type of sake is recommended ? Thank you.
Just what I need. Thanks a lot.
ほんとだ!Netflixに深夜食堂が!情報ありがとうございます!お鍋はいいですねー。でも早く冬終わってほしい。。。

Already! So happy to hear that. Stay warm! Nagano must be beautiful this season (all seasons!).
Hmmm yum:) thanks for the sharing !
Thank you for watching!
I loved watching Midnight Diner! This is such a good idea :)
Thank you! Hope you enjoy cooking the recipes from the show!
wow that was really easy to make. Thanks for sharing! Now I'm going to make a bigger batch :)
Hope you enjoy! You can make dashi ahead of time and save in fridge for a week too. :)
I love it! So simple! :)
Right??? Such a fantastic meal when you need a comfort dish, and SO EASY!
Just One Cookbook I would probably add more ponzu though. And fish tofuuuu! Mmmm.
Thank you. Itadakimasu 🙏🏼
Hello!! I love your videos!!!
Can you tell me how is called the pan you used to make the hot pot??? Thanks...
Donabe (doh nah beh) :)
Thank you...
can I use store-bought ponzu?
This looks so delicious. But I don't have a nabe pot...
Great video! And I REALLY LIKE THE BACKGROUND MUSIC :DDD
Thanks so much!
I'd love to see more hot pot for one recipes !
Thank you for your request! :)
Agreed, I just got a small donabe for Christmas and would love to see more recipes like this
I love katsuobushi, but any alternatives for those with seafood allergies? Thank you!!
Kombu dashi, maybe? Kelp is okay?
where can we purchase the hot pot bowls?
What is alternative to bonito flakes?
+Catchetat Kombu Dashi. If you hit "i" button on top, you will see Vegetarian / Vegan dashi link.
I just made this in a 3 l. dutch oven pot, doubling the recipe, i.e. for two people.. It worked just perfectly. Certainly not the last time we will be doing that. Instead of meat in the pot, we cooked a couple of small pork cutlets on the side, using your Tonteki recipe marinade and method (also an excellent recipe) with a homemade Ponzu, again following your recipe. All was just excellent. It is such fun to have been inspired by the series on Netflix and now able to follow up with cooking the dishes too. Great fun. especially as I am not a good cook for the most part. You made it easy enough. Thanks.
This comment made me so happy! Thank you Jeanette! Wish we can have more series for this show on Netflix... we're moving to Kodoku no Gurume (Gourmet)... not on Netflix, but it is probably more popular food drama than Midnight Diner.
looks so lovely! unfortunately I can't find any of those ingredients in my country. Hope to be in Japan some day soon
+vash47 It can be any ingredients - I wrote more detailed post on my blog. ☺️
Hey there! So, it’s very difficult to get bonito flakes near me. It’s also difficult to get dashi. I have the rest of these ingredients, but would you have a recommendation for a different stock?
Hi Emcee! If you want to keep it "authentic" Japanese hot pot, I won't suggest chicken/beef/vegetable broth for example... You could, but it won't taste Japanese in this dish. Now, if you can't get bonito flakes... then you can use kombu and dried shiitake dashi? www.justonecookbook.com/how_to/how-to-make-dashi-jiru/
You should do more of these... Maybe take recipes from 孤独のグルメ as well? :)
Yeah, more recipes are coming (some will be recipe only no video only on my blog). Yeah one day I'll check it out and try!
I love that tv show! The first season had the best characters~ Thank you for sharing!
Oh I have a questions about Japanese mushrooms. How do you clean? (Like does it need to be washed or soaked or needs vinegar to lift dirt off?) And how do you store for freshness?
I'm happy to hear you enjoy the show too! For enoki mushrooms, I cut off the bottom and quickly rinse under cold water before I use it. If I'm not using all of them, I usually keep the bottom attached. So I tear with hands the portion I use, and keep the rest in a bag and store in the fridge. I recommend using it soon though. :)
I like the "Just One Cookbook" apron you're wearing !! Did you order custom-made for the apron ?
Thank you! No, I requested to add JOC to the apron . :D www.hedleyandbennett.com/
I'm thinking, can we add the Pork belly at the last part after U take the hotpot from the stove? This way, the Pork belly won't be overcooked.
I've made so many of your recipes!!! Are there any alternate ingredients that are ok to use? I'd like to change out the mushrooms if possible? Also does this work with other meats as well?
I'm not Nami but is it because you don't like mushrooms, or because you can't get that variety ? (other types of mushroom work fine). In any event I think Japanese hot pots work well with many different vegetables (and meats).
Aww thank you for your perfect answer, Juan! I loved your feedback!
Hi Lindsey! Thank you for trying my recipes! :) Like Juan said, hot pot is pretty easy to swap ingredients. If you have any specific ingredient you want to put, let me know - I can help you if it works or not. But most vegetables and mushrooms work just fine. As for meat, sliced pork, beef, and chicken thighs work too. I listed some options on my blog: www.justonecookbook.com/hot-pot-for-one/. Also check out my OTHER hot pot recipes here for inspiration on ingredients: www.justonecookbook.com/recipes/?fwp_type_of_dish=hot-pot-nabe
juandenz2008 hi Juan! I'm allergic to mushrooms 😁 was just trying to come up with a good alternative that will still cook thoroughly in five minutes
Do you need a pot like that to cook it? Or will any pot work?
Any pot is okay, but I wrote a blog post why it's good to have one: www.justonecookbook.com/hot-pot-for-one/
Your individual hot pot looks perfect, Nami-san! Oh, I made your yakisoba this weekend; it was very delicious.
I couldn't help but notice your stylish apron. Is it from Hedley and Bennett? I just love their designs.
Thank you Yoshiko-san! I'm so happy to hear you liked the yakisoba recipe! Yes, it is. :)
Looks lovely! Just a quick question, can I reuse the katsuobushi after I've made the dashi, or are they only good to use once? Thanks for sharing your recipes!
You can use one more time, but the second dashi (we call it "Niban Dashi") is less refined so use this dashi for some dish that you will season with other condiments. Basically a dish that don't rely on dashi flavor like this one. OR you can make rice seasonings with the leftover Katsuobushi. www.justonecookbook.com/how_to/homemade-furikake-rice-seasonings/
I was wondering, how many calories does this hot pot has?
i just search for the recipy after watching Midnight Diner ... aww
I bought a hot pot just to make this. It's as good as it looks.
Wonderful! Thank you for your kind feedback!
What size nabe pot are you using?
This donabe is considered single serving pot. :)
can i get a video tutorial on where to find these ingredients in America................
Hope this list is helpful! www.justonecookbook.com/japanese-grocery-stores-around-the-world/
I have veganised many of your recipes and they turn out very well :)) xx
I am so happy to hear that! Thank you for letting me know, Mimi!
Most of the vegetables aren't that avaible in germany, that's pretty sad because all of your recips look so delicous! I'll keep on watching :D
Probably you will need to go to Asian grocery store. I have a TH-camr friend who cooks Malaysian food and she said she can buy most of things in Asian grocery store in Frankfurt.
Are you living in Japan??
lots of love from Bangladesh.......
Coming soon Japan........
+Nahar Shimu I live in SF but go home every summer. :)
I LOVE MIDNIGHT DINER!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I LOVE YOU AND YOUR CHANNEL!!!!! (plutonically :3 )
Thanks so much!! :)
Is that a nabe pot?
Yup, you can find a single serving one at Daiso if you have one near you.
There are also a few on Amazon as well, but I don't know if they're single serving or more.
Mashta!
I love Japanese cooking shows. Ehhhhhhhh 😀
Thank you for watching!
