Reading the bitterness

Ukogi is introduced in Iwate's regional-cuisine record as an ingredient used in 「うこぎのほろほろ」 (in translation: "ukogi horohoro"). The same record describes it as a home dish mixing boiled, chopped ukogi with miso-pickled daikon and walnuts, and states that preparation may differ by household and region.

The same record describes boiling and then chopping ukogi. This concerns the specific dish 「うこぎのほろほろ」 (in translation: "ukogi horohoro") and is not a general standard method or an exclusion of other uses.
