Takikomi gohan (炊き込みご飯) is a Japanese rice dish seasoned with dashi and soy sauce along with mushrooms, vegetables, meat, or fish. The ingredients of takikomi gohan are cooked with the rice; in a similar preparation, maze gohan, flavorful ingredients are mixed into cooked rice. Takikomi gohan is often called gomoku gohan. Loosely translated it means "five ingredients mixed rice." The contents often revolve around seasonal availability and can include matsutake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, fresh soybeans, chestnuts, or oysters. Burdock root is also a common complement.
