Usage

A branch off the tofu road

The simmered soybean mash comes from soaking the beans, grinding them on the stone mill and boiling them in a pot. It is the same mash that goes on to become tofu, so nothing has to be started again from the bean. The same mash also makes suttate jiru.

In the real world

Gojiru belongs to the Reihoku district of Fukui. Soybeans soaked overnight are ground in a suribachi into a mash called go, brought to the boil, seasoned with miso and eaten hot with finely chopped negi and a little chilli. It appears in autumn and winter and at memorial meals, and soups of the same name are told of in several prefectures.

Differences in game

The beans are ground in a stone mill before boiling, instead of being boiled before grinding. The stone mill also replaces grinding in a suribachi.
