Osechi Ryori

Osechi Ryori

In Japan, on New Years Day, Japanese traditionally eat a special kind of food called Osechi-ryori. This term is loosely translated into seasonal or significant period food. The custom was imported from China and developed during the Heian Period (794-1185) in Japan. Over time, the tradition has developed into a custom that is widespread throughout Japan. The foods used in Osechi-ryori are varied but there are many common staple foods that are included such as O-zoni (mochi soup), pickled vegetables (tsukemono), and a large portion of boiled vegetables (nimono) with soy sauce and sugar.

These foods were typically made at home prior to 1 January; but today many people purchase them at specialty stores, grocery stores, or even convenience stores in Japan. The dishes usually are served in lacquered boxes called jubako and stacked on top of each other. Each food dish has a meaning for specific blessings or wishes for the new year. They also have positive attachments based on their shape, color, and name!

Osechi is normally eaten on 1 January as the first meal of the day – usually sometime around mid-morning. Families celebrate with this special food and along with lively and animated conversation; and hope for a happy and healthy start to the new year!
