Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Quickly fry in the frying pan and then place in a colander. Pour hot water over the chicken and drain.

Cut the head section of the bamboo shoot vertically into 8 pieces. Roughly chop the remaining bamboo shoot. Boil for 2 minutes and drain in a colander.
Cut the konnyaku into slices 7mm thick. Cut a slit in the center and twist the konnyaku to form "bridles." Place in boiling water and boil for 2-3 minutes. Drain in a colander.
Cut the carrot into 8mm round slices and then use a cutter to cut into blossoms. Remove the ends from the snow peas and parboil in salted water.
Place oil in a pot and stir-fry the vegetables. Add the chicken from Step 1, the dashi stock, and the liquid from rehydrating the shiitake mushrooms.
Add the ★ ingredients. When it comes to a boil, lower the heat to low and simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Arrange on a dish and decorate with the salted and parboiled snow peas.
Note: When you first cook the chicken separately, cook it until it is browned and then don't add to the main pot until about 15 minutes after the vegetables have cooked to prevent the chicken from falling apart. This will create a nice end result.
