There are rules on how to pack dishes |
Traditional dishes (including mitsuzakana) are packed in the ichinojyu. Sweet dishes and hors d'oeuvres are also packed in it. |
|
Steamed dishes, boiled dishes and vinegared dishes are packed |
|
Boiled dishes are packed in the sannojyu. |

For an example of what might actually be packed. let's look at my mother's osechi-ryori. Ichinojyu: mitsuzakana, tatakigobou, hinode-ebi, kamaboko , datemak‚‰ and kurikinton Ninojyu: boiled eggs, grilled yellowtail, boiled lily root with eggs, namasu and baked chicken Sannojyu: nimono and kobumaki. |
