In Japanese homes on the principal day of the year, the dish to eat is ozone, a soup made out of pink-rimmed fish cake, daikon, carrot, and shiitake mushrooms coasting in rich dashi (kelp and bonito stock) alongside mochi, chewy rice cakes, which are stove toasted until they look like fire-licked marshmallows. The planning fluctuates by the district. In some cases chicken juices are utilized; Napa cabbage or pork can be included. Any place it is served, ozone is said to bring good karma, yet for me, the medium is the message: I feel honored just to have this steaming bowl before me, fit to be eaten up in the organization of friends and family. — Nancy Matsumoto
